Agilent Profile
Agilent has created the first-of-its-kind gas chromatography app for the iPhone and iPod touch. The GC pressure and flow calculator app can be used to instantly and accurately determine pressures and flows through open tubular capillary columns. The app is based on the popular PC version that has been downloaded more than 10,000 times from the Agilent website. The GC calculator is a fast and easy way to:
See how different GC conditions affect column flow and pressure before setting up a system
Determine if your current column dimensions are appropriate and/or what your inlet pressure should be when switching from GC (atmospheric pressure) to GC/MS (vacuum)
Calculate new parameters when switching to a different carrier gas, such as going from helium to hydrogen for faster chromatography

Modern HPLC Strategies: Improving Retention and Peak Shape for Basic Analytes
August 16th 2024In high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), it is common for bases and unreacted ionized silanols on silica-based columns to cause irreproducible retention, broad peaks, and peak tailing when working with basic analytes. David S. Bell, Lead Consultant at ASKkPrime LLC offers innovative HPLC strategies that can help mitigate such issues.
Quantification of Amino Acids in Sweat Samples with HPLC
September 18th 2024A recent study investigated the significance of quantifying amino acids in minute sweat volumes using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence (FL) detection, offering a non-invasive and efficient way to screen for diseases by detecting amino acids in sweat, even with minimal sweat volumes.
