Who should take this course?
This course is designed for anyone who works with HPLC or UHPLC. No previous experience with HPLC or UHPLC systems is assumed; however, much of the course will also appeal to the more experienced chromatographer.
What does it cover?
"HPLC & UHPLC Troubleshooting" is an intensive one day course that teaches you how to solve the common problems that can occur with your LC methods. You will learn how to qualify the performance of your HPLC/UHPLC instrument using specific tests that can also be used for isolating existing problems. You'll also learn how to prevent many of these problems from occurring in the first place. This course covers:Operating principles of each module in an HPLC/UHPLC system
