Method of choice: The combination of size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and light scattering detection (LS) determines molecular weight, especially for higher molecular species such as aggregates or oligomers. As an additional plus sample size and topology can also be revealed. Special attention needs to be turned to the quality of SEC columns in order to provide signals unaffected by spikes. YMC’s SEC columns support LS-detection perfectly due to a high level of inertness...

Have you ever experienced problems with a new method? Are your system suitability tests failing now for a method established years ago? Is is your HPLC column dying too fast? There are many possible reasons for these issues and their root cause can be hard to find. Our new (U)HPLC Troubleshooting Guide provides an easy breakdown of potential solutions for the most common issues in analytical liquid chromatography...
It is well known that flow properties of powders are governed by the intrinsic grain properties and forces acting on and between the grains. It is no surprise that the amount of API present in a blend impacts powder processability. To this end, GranuTools has developed, over the past years, a whole range of state-of-the-art equipments to allow characterizing the flow properties of powders and granular materials in many different geometries to match process conditions....
Are you dealing with demanding substances that tend to coordinate with metals? Are you looking for an inert solution for your peptide/protein, (oligo)nucleotide or sensitive small molecules? This is the solution for your problems! The bioinert YMC-Triart columns are fully biocompatible due to their PEEK lined stainless steel column bodies and the use of PEEK frits. You can achieve excellent peak shapes for sensitive compounds. Check out YMC's new flyer to discover more about biocompatible YMC-Triart metal-free columns....
Download this free infographic from Thermo Fisher Scientific to learn about SARS-CoV-2 infection and replication, disease progression and spread of COVID-19, and the importance and types of COVID-19 testing. There are different types of technologies used to test for SARS-CoV-2. The two tests that are most often used are PCR and antigen. PCR is 99% accurate and detects viral ....
