Mastering LC Method Development: Essential Tips for Increased Productivity
Modern pharmaceutical business drivers are continually pushing companies to reduce the time it takes to get a product or service to market, reduce risk and cost, and improve product quality. Throughout the drug development process, analytical methods are developed at various stages, and typically the samples vary in complexity throughout those stages. Due to the inherent nature of this process, redundant efforts may take place across an organization, resulting in a very costly and time-consuming process.
If we can streamline the process of developing methods, products can conceivably be brought to market faster. Additionally, if we develop chromatographic methods that are both faster and information-rich, it will be more cost-effective and, in turn, improve the bottom line.
In this presentation, you will discover tips and tricks for HPLC method development. Learn how automated scouting of columns and solvents, method development software, and more can be used to develop methods for your HPLC analyses efficiently.
Presenter: Dr. Frank Steiner (Senior Manager, Product Applications & Scientific Advisor, Thermo Fisher Scientific)
Frank Steiner is Senior Manager of Product Applications and Science Advisor in the HPLC Product Marketing team and he coordinates HPLC based scientific collaborations in his role as scientific advisor. Frank joined Dionex Corporation in 2005, now a part of Thermo Fisher Scientific, and had been manager in various HPLC marketing functions, where he played a significant role in developing and launching the Vanquish UHPLC systems. Frank received his PhD degree in chemistry in 1995 from Saarland University in Saarbruecken, Germany where he became assistant professor in 1997 and associate professor in 2003, after his postdoc at the nuclear research center in Saclay France in 1996. Frank published more than 30 publications in peer reviewed journals on HPLC, CE, and CEC, as well as more than 10 text book chapters on HPLC method development and optimization.
