What Will Be Covered:
"Importance of Column Selection in HPLC” - Atis Chakrabarti, Ph.D., Manager, Technical Service, Tosoh Bioscience
With the basic knowledge of HPLC and theory, selection of the right column is the next most important thing. This is like solving a puzzle considering the many different selection criteria to consider; some of which are straight forward, some not but complicated and interdependent. This requires critical identification of stationary phase based on the characteristics of the sample, complexity of the mixture, the difference in chemistry among the components of the mixture and goal of the separation. Selecting a right column is a science but the artistic skills a chromatographer gains through hands-on experience is important too. With the advancement of technology more choices of columns and packing materials are available for selection which is obviously appropriate and useful for ever expanding range of individual needs. This presentation is intended to assist the attendees in column selection and method development with a focus on biomolecules.
