Beschreibung

The rapid development of HPLC instrumentation and technology opens numerous possibilities - and entails new questions. Which column should I choose to obtain best results, which gradient fits to my analytical problem, what are recent and promising trends in detection techniques, what is state of the art regarding LC-MS coupling? All these questions are answered by experts in ten self-contained chapters. Besides these more hardware-related and technical chapters, further related areas of interest are covered: Comparison of recent chromatographic data systems and integration strategies, smart documentation, efficient information search in internet, and tips for a successful FDA inspection. This practical approach offers in a condensed manner recent trends and hints, and will also display the advanced reader mistakes and errors he was not aware of so far.

The structure of “The HPLC-Expert”

This book contains the following chapters:

Chapter 1 (LC/MS coupling) is dedicated to the most important coupling technique of the modern HPLC. In the first part of the chapter, Oliver Schmitz overviews the state of the art of LC/MS coupling and opposes different modes. In the second part, Markus Martin shows Pitfalls of LC/MS coupling and provides precise and specific hints on how LC/MS coupling can successfully be established in a daily routine. LC/MS coupling is often linked to life science and environmental analysis. Alban Muller and Andreas Hofmann show a concrete example of LC/MS coupling in ion chromatography as an unfamiliar application.

In Chapter 2, Frank Steiner, Stefan Lamotte, and Stavros Kromidas go in detail into optimization strategies for RP-HPLC and discuss, on the basis of selected examples, which parameters seem promising in which case.

Chapter 3 is devoted to the gradient elution. Stavros Kromidas, Frank Steiner, and Stefan Lamotte discuss about aspects of gradient optimization in a dense form in the first part and offer simple “to-do” rules. In the second part, Hans-Joachim Kuss shows that predictions of gradients runs with excel can be very unerring and that the often used linear model represents a simplified approximation.

Chapter 4 is about the comparison and choice of modern HPLC columns; Stefan Lamotte, Stavros Kromidas, and Frank Steiner give an overview of different columns and come forward with proposals for pragmatic tests for columns as well as column portfolios, depending on the separation problem.

In Chapter 5, Juergen Maier-Rosenkranz introduces separation techniques in the biochromatography, illustrates their characteristics compared with RP-HPLC, and describes the advantages and disadvantages of the individual modes.

Evaluation programs have several strengths, extents, and opportunities. In Chapter 6, Amo Simon shows as a neutral insider advantages and disadvantages of the most known software on the market: modern HPLC-Software programs – characteristics, comparison, outlook.

During integration of peaks, which are not separated by base line, there might amount enormous and often undetected mistakes. Mike Hillebrand presents in Chapter 7prospects of the “right” integration nowadays. At the same time, he introduces among other things two software tools, which allow to determine objectively the deviation from desired value as well as the identification of the “true” peak area.

Chapter 8 is a question of HPLC in the regulated field. In the first part, Stefan Schmitz shows opportunities and gives a great many of hints in terms of intelligent documentation. Iris Retzko and Stefan Schmitz also give many hints for a successful FDA inspection in the second part. Especially, psychology and some simple tricks act a crucial part.

To gather information in an intelligent way is not only for secret services of prime importance. Efficient information collecting in the era of web 2.0 at the example of HPLC is the topic of Torsten Beyer in Chapter 9. Some links are presented, which might be useful to find specific information and the quality of these sources is also examined.

MS coupling has difficulties with isobar compounds; furthermore, there are some interesting molecules that are not UV active and finally refraction index detectors cannot be used in case of gradient elution. In Chapter 10, trends of detection techniques, Stefan Lamotte is giving a short overview of aerosol detectors und presents advantages as well as disadvantages.

The reader is not obliged to read the book linear. Every chapter represents a self-contained module, so jumping in between chapters is always possible. In this way, the character of the book gives justice to meet the requirements of a reference work. The reader may benefit thereof. At the end: some of the readers might want to use the EXCEL-Makro of Hans-Joachim Kuss for predicting gradient runs. Also the software tools of Mike Hillebrand to estimate integration errors might have drawn the interest of the reader. After all, Torsten Beyer's collection of useful links might be worth one's weight in gold and save unnecessary search. We want to give you the opportunity to use these tools online. WILEY-VCH makes the following link available: http://www.wiley-vch.de/textbooks/, where you can find the original-makro of Hans-Joachim Kuss for prediction of gradient runs, a demo version of the two integration tools of Mike Hillebrand as well as a list of links from Thorsten Beyer. We hope this offer obtains approval.

Preface

The HPLC-user fortunately can find nowadays many and good textbooks for the HPLC-methodology. Also applied literature, for example, for the pharma-analytics or for techniques such as UHPLC or gradient elution is available.

In this book, we cover different topics in the field of modern HPLC. The purpose is to demonstrate current developments and dwell on techniques which recently found their way to the HPLC-laboratory or will do in near future.

At the same time, we offer knowledge in condensed form. In 10 chapters experts address the skilled user and the laboratory head with practical attitudes, who are searching for profound (background-)knowledge and new insights.

Our purpose is on the one hand to point out for the reader unknown mistakes and on the other hand to offer him latest tips, which are hard to get in this condensed form. I hope this choice of topics meets the audience with approval.

My acknowledgments belong to the colleagues who placed their experience and knowledge at the disposal. Special thanks go to WILEY-VCH and especial Reinhold Weber for the extraordinary good cooperation.

Chapter 1LC/MS Coupling

1.1 State of the Art in LC/MS

Oliver Schmitz

1.1.1 Introduction

The dramatically increased demands on the qualitative and quantitative analysis of more complex samples are a huge challenge for modern instrumental analysis. For complex organic samples (e.g., body fluids, natural products, or environmental samples), only chromatographic or electrophoretic separations followed by mass spectrometric detection meet these requirements. However, at certain moments, a tendency can be observed in which a complex sample preparation and pre-separation is replaced by high-resolution mass spectrometer with atmospheric pressure (AP) ion sources. However, numerous ion–molecule reactions in the ion source – especially in complex samples due to incomplete separation – are possible because the ionization in typical AP ion sources is nonspecific [1]. Thus, this approach often leads to ion suppression and artifact formation in the ion source, particularly in electrospray ionization (ESI) [2].
