Application Note – SpeedCore Method Transfer Document by Fortis Technologies

fortisHPLC

Fortis® Technologies Ltd. supplies UHPLC and HPLC columns to the pharmaceutical, environmental and foodstuffs industries. Their goal is to supply innovative solutions to the separation and purification industries.

In their new application note – Transfer of HPLC methods to SpeedCore particles – they outline how to transfer an old slow HPLC method to core-shell particles in order to provide a much faster method. Learn how to use 3 simple equations to change parameters to do this.

Using Alternative Carrier Gases with Accelerated ASTM D2887 Simulated Distillation Analysis

By Katarina Oden, Barry Burger, and Amanda Rigdon.
PCAR2320-UNV_header

ASTM Method D2887 now allows for alternate carrier gases, so hydrogen or nitrogen can replace helium carrier gas for simulated distillation. Here is shown that with an MXT®-1HT SimDist column and Restek’s EZGC® online method translator existing methods using helium can be easily converted to either hydrogen or nitrogen carrier gas. Because retention times are preserved with proper method translation, there are minimal changes to peak identification tables, which significantly simplifies method validation.
