Method Transfer to Core-Shell Particles
‘Old’ HPLC methods with long run times are being altered or surpassed by newer UHPLC or core-shell methods in order to save time and cost. In this application note we show how with the use of 3 simple equations transfer of older methods can be easily achieved onto newer core-shell particles. We show the example of a pharmaceutical drug and its impurities being reduced from a 30minute run time down to less than 10minutes. Using the calculations correctly means that no loss of resolution is seen even with the decrease in retention time.
Pick Your Poison. Isolation of Paclitaxel (Mar 2025)
March 7th 2025The diterpenoid, paclitaxel, which was identified as a potent chemotherapy agent for breast and ovarian cancer originates from the Pacific Yew tree. The isolation of paclitaxel from its major impurities is shown with the use of Hamilton’s PRP-1 (5 µm) HPLC column.
