Agilent Product Profile
Agilent is expanding its family of Rapid Resolution High Definition (RRHD) columns with four new phases, including two new C18 stationary phases. Now, there are four C18 phases to work with, so you have more selectivity flexibility in your method development. Furthermore, ZORBAX RRHD Columns help you take your UHPLC analysis further, by providing stability to 1200 bar.
The ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 phase features a double endcapped process and unique bonding that delivers exceptional peak shapes across a broad range of analytes. This makes it an exceptional column for method development. Many users of UHPLC are working with analyses that require the highest level of sensitivity and resolution. Alternate C18 phases, such as Extend C18 and Eclipse XDB C18 are desirable because of the additional selectivity refinements they allow.

HPLC 2025 Preview: The Present and Future of Automation in Analytical Laboratories
May 22nd 2025Analytical laboratories are undergoing a fundamental transformation. In the face of increasing sample volumes, growing regulatory requirements, and the rising demand for faster, more precise, and cost-efficient analysis, optimizing laboratory processes is becoming a central focus. Automation technologies offer promising solutions in this regard. Recently, they have evolved from isolated solutions to comprehensive systems that permeate nearly all areas of laboratory practice. This development not only opens up new opportunities in terms of efficiency, data quality, and scalability but also brings technical, organizational, and personnel challenges. To successfully address these, strategic approaches are needed that consider both the technological and human dimensions of the transformation.
Quantifying Isavuconazole in Dried Blood Spots Using HPLC
May 21st 2025Isavuconazole, an antimycotic agent used to treat fungal infections, can typically be found during dried blood spot sampling. However, there are obstacles that keep it from being an ideal approach for properly determining the drug’s presence.
Separating and Quantifying Spinach Flavonoids with UHPLC–MS/MS
May 21st 2025Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine’s Children's Nutrition Research Center (Houston, Texas) developed and validated a high-throughput extraction and ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC–MS/MS) method to separate and quantify 39 spinach flavonoid species in 11.5 min.
