• Short (30-50mm) - short run times, low backpressure<br />
• Long (250-300mm) - higher resolution, long run times<br />
• Narrow (≤ 2.1mm) - higher detector sensitivity<br />
• Wide (10-22mm) - high sample loading<br />
• Narrow columns enable to save solvent waste.<br />
• Short columns enable to reduce the analyssis time.<br />

<br />
• Spherical particles offer reduced back pressures and longer column life when<br />
using viscous mobile phases like 50:50 MeOH:H2O.<br />
38
• Smaller particles offer higher efficiency, but also cause higher backpressure.<br />
Choose 3µm particles for resolving complex, multi-component samples.<br />
Otherwise, choose 5 or 10µm packings.<br />
P ∝ (1/d p ) 2 P = Pressure<br />
d p = Particle Size<br />
39<br />
<br />
• High surface area generally provides greater retention, capacity and resolution<br />
for separating complex, multi-component samples. Low surface area packings<br />
generally equilibrate quickly, especially important in gradient analyses.<br />
40
• Larger pores allow larger solute molecules to be retained longer<br />
through h maximum exposure to the surface area of the particles.<br />
Choose a pore size of 60~150Å or less for sample MW ≤ 2000.<br />
Choose a pore size of 300Å or greater for sample MW > 2000.<br />
41<br />
<br />
Higher carbon loads generally offer greater resolution and longer<br />
run times. Low carbon loads shorten run times and many show a<br />
different selectivity.<br />
42
Endcapping reduces peak-tailing of polar solutes that interact excessively with the<br />
otherwise exposed, mostly acidic silanols. Non-endcapped packings provide a<br />
different selectivity than do endcapped packings, especially for such polar<br />
samples.<br />

Question : What column?<br />
Which two sample components have the most similar structures?<br />
Draw them, then circle the structural t differences between them.<br />
Anthracene<br />
3-Hexylanthracene<br />
(CH2) 5 CH 3<br />
Note: The structural difference between<br />
these two compounds is the<br />
hydrophobic hexyl side chain. This<br />
suggests a non-polar C18 or C8<br />
column would interact with this area of<br />
difference to help provide separation of<br />
these two compounds.<br />

Benefits of U<strong>HPLC</strong><br />
U<strong>HPLC</strong><br />
Green Productivity<br />
• Higher throughput<br />
• Much Less Solvent<br />
• Better detection<br />
Isoflavones in nutriceutical products<br />
Can be analyzed with U<strong>HPLC</strong> over six times<br />
faster, with higher sensitivity,<br />
using over 90% less mobile<br />
phase solvent compared with<br />
conventional <strong>HPLC</strong> methods.<br />

Common Fears of Migrating to U<strong>HPLC</strong><br />

Cost of ownership and operation<br />
Ruggedness of sub-2µm columns<br />

• Migration to U<strong>HPLC</strong> is easier than most people p think.<br />
• New hardware will pay for itself by increasing productivity and<br />
reducing operating costs.<br />

…the strength of U<strong>HPLC</strong> is increased efficiency by reducing particle size<br />
‘Van Deemter Equation’<br />
Smaller particles size means<br />
Faster chromatography<br />
Increased Efficiency<br />
Enhanced Resolution/Selectivity<br />
Wider range of flow velocities<br />
Less solvent consumption<br />
Smaller particles size also means<br />
Higher operating pressure<br />
Filtration of MP and samples (0.2µm)<br />
Low system volume required<br />
Lower sample loading<br />
Higher skill level of operator<br />

Requirements for a U<strong>HPLC</strong> System<br />
System must handle pressures up to 15,000 psi to in order to utilize sub 2-µm<br />
particle size columns.<br />
• Ultra high pressure pumps such as the Flexar FX-10 and FX-15.<br />
• Fast autosamplers with injection valves that can handle pressures >15,000 psi.<br />
Column oven – elevated temperature reduces mobile phase viscosity and system<br />
backpressure.<br />
Fast detectors such as the Flexar FX UV/Vis with a sampling rate of 100 Hz.<br />
Reduced extra-column volume is critical to minimize band broadening in U<strong>HPLC</strong>.<br />
• Low ID Tubing<br />
• Short tubing length<br />
• Low volume detector<br />

General Steps of Method Migration<br />
1. Choose a <strong>HPLC</strong> analysis that is appropriate for migration to U<strong>HPLC</strong>.<br />
2. Select an U<strong>HPLC</strong> column with the best potential for successful migration.<br />
3. Calculate U<strong>HPLC</strong> method parameters (Flow Rate, Injection Volume, etc.).<br />
4. Run transferred method.<br />
5. Optimize transferred method.<br />
Other Considerations:<br />
• Use only <strong>HPLC</strong> grade or U<strong>HPLC</strong> grade mobile phases.<br />
• Filter all mobile phases, standards and samples with ≤0.2µm membranes.<br />
• Utilize elevated temperature to reduce MP viscosity and column<br />
backpressure.<br />
• Prepare samples and standards in initial MP conditions.<br />
70<br />
…careful planning maximizes potential for success
Choosing the Right Column<br />
Choose a column with the same type of stationary phase to maintain retention<br />
order.<br />
The optimal column ID for U<strong>HPLC</strong> is 2.1mm because mobile phase<br />
consumption and frictional heating are significantly reduced.<br />
Choose column dimensions that will have a similar efficiency as the <strong>HPLC</strong><br />
column currently used.<br />
A good “rule of thumb” for choosing a U<strong>HPLC</strong> column length when currently<br />
using a 4.6mm ID, 5.0µm particle <strong>HPLC</strong> column is:<br />
<strong>HPLC</strong> Column Dimensions<br />
50mmx46mm<br />
4.6 U<strong>HPLC</strong> Column Dimensions<br />
30 mm x 2.1 mm<br />
150 mm x 4.6 mm<br />
50 mm x 2.1 mm<br />
250 mm x 4.6 mm<br />
100 mm x 2.1 mm<br />
71<br />
…the right column choice will simplify method migration<br />
Tools Available to Simplify Method Migration<br />
Many good references are available with detailed descriptions of method transfer<br />
including a <strong>PerkinElmer</strong> white paper entitled “Guidelines for the Use of U<strong>HPLC</strong><br />
Instruments” by D. Guillarme & J. Veuthey. White paper is available at:<br />
http://las.perkinelmer.com/content/applicationnotes/wtp_guidelinesforuhplcinstruments.pdf<br />
There are five major method<br />
parameters to convert when<br />
transferring a method from<br />
<strong>HPLC</strong> to U<strong>HPLC</strong>.<br />
• Injection Volume (V inj )<br />
• Flow Rate (F)<br />
• Isocratic Step Time (t iso )<br />
• Gradient Step Time (t grad )<br />
• Gradient Slope<br />
72<br />
…method transfer calculator is available from <strong>PerkinElmer</strong>
Injection Volume<br />
The injection volume (V inj ) must be adjusted to avoid column overload as well as<br />
maintain sensitivity and reduce extra-column band broadening.<br />
As a rule, injected volumes should not exceed 1-5% of the column volume.<br />
The column volume is a function of the column length (L) and internal diameter<br />
(d c ) but is independent of stationary phase particle size.<br />

…conserve precious sample and expensive standards<br />
Flow Rate<br />
The flow rate (F) for U<strong>HPLC</strong> must be adjusted to maintain a similar mobile phase<br />
linear velocity (u) used in the <strong>HPLC</strong> column.<br />
The linear velocity within a column is directly proportional to the column diameter<br />
(d c ) but also depends on the particle size (d p ) of the stationary phase. Therefore<br />
u*d p must be maintained at a constant value to account for changes in column<br />
diameter and particle size.<br />

Decrease Mobile Phase Consumption<br />
• For successful method migration the product of mobile phase velocity (u) and<br />
particle size (d p ) should be maintained at constant value. [ (u•d p ) 1 =(u•d p ) 2 ]<br />
• The migration of flow rate is dependent on particle size and internal column<br />
