As chromatographic methods become more sensitive and analytical targets more complex, subtle interactions between analytes and instrument hardware can introduce variability that affects reproducibility, recovery, and method transfer. Addressing these often-overlooked sources of variation during method development can improve performance throughout validation and routine quality control testing.
As part of the Tell Us What You Know webinar series, Kenneth Berthelette will discuss how MaxPeak™ Premier Technology, an inert chromatographic hardware technology, can help minimize unwanted analyte interactions, reduce variability, and support the development of more robust analytical methods. This expert discussion will explore common challenges in chromatographic method development and provide practical insights into improving analytical reliability.
Discussion topics:
- Hidden variables that can affect chromatographic performance, including hardware-related interactions and trace metal effects
- How inert hardware can support improved reproducibility, method transfer, and scaling between analytical workflows
- Lessons learned from real-world challenges in chromatographic method development and troubleshooting
- Considerations for building future-ready methods that remain robust throughout validation and routine analysis
