Unlocking the Power of 3-D Absorbance Data

This podcast will examine peak deconvolution with photodiode array detectors and how a unique software function can separate peaks that are not resolved on-column, yielding better detection results and minimizing method development and analysis time. The podcast will explore the development of this tool with a leading pharmaceutical company and provide examples of how it can have an impact across a wide range of disciplines in the pharma/biopharma arena, from development to production.

Figure 2. Split injection used to measure triplicate test of MTBE, hexane, o-xylene, and 1-methylnaphthalene comparing different solvents (methanol, methylene chloride) and column insertion distances starting with 0.5 mm, 5.0 mm, 10.0 mm, 15 mm, and 20.0 mm. Methanol had the best performance at the 5.0 mm insertion distance and methylene chloride looked slightly better at the 0.5 mm. We would still recommend not going below the 5.0 mm manufacturer recommended insertion distance.
