An Ounce of Prevention: Keeping your HPLC column in Tip-top Shape

You’ve carefully chosen your HPLC column for your analysis, but have you done everything needed to keep your column in its optimal working condition. Take the column out of the box, install it, and run it, right? Wrong!

• What about the mobile phase might be a problem?
• What on my LC system could be an issue?
• Could there be something about how I’ve prepped my sample that could have a negative effect?
• How do I wash or store my column after the analysis is done?

In this webinar, we look to answer these and other questions, provide guidelines, good lab practices and recommendations that will help keep your HPLC column in good shape.
