Interactive TrainingTM High Performance
Liquid Chromatography
This recently upgraded and expanded training package, written by an experienced
practical chromatographer, contains a wealth of information about all aspects
of HPLC. It gives comprehensive descriptions, with animated,
interactive demonstrations, of the principles, instrumentation and practical
applications of High Performance Liquid Chromatography, with self-test
multiple choice questions on each module.
The five modules included are as follows:
Chromatographic Theory
-
Introduction: column chromatography, chromatograms.
-
Separation theory: retention time, capacity factor, separation factor,
resolution.
-
Column efficiency: peak shapes.
-
Column dispersion mechanisms.
HPLC Instrumentation
-
Introduction
-
Syringe, reciprocating & constant pressure pumping.
-
Sample introduction
-
Columns.
-
Detectors (UV-vis, Diode Array, Fluorescence, Electrochemical, Refractive
Index).
Analysis using HPLC
-
Sample preparation
-
Qualitative and quantitative analysis
-
Method development: choice of method, column, detector, eluent, gradient
elution.
-
Interactive examples of method development.
Separation Modes & Columns
-
Classification of methods
-
Adsorption, reversed-phase, ion pair, ion exchange and size exclusion chromatography
Questions & Answers
-
Users are tested on their knowledge of the material in the package using
multiple choice questions.
Interactive HPLC is one of a range of training packages for analytical
chemistry: also available are Interactive GC, Adv.GC,
AAS, ICP & MS.
They are suitable for both college students and laboratory staff, giving
sufficient emphasis to both theory and practice. Network versions are available.
There is now a wealth of research demonstrating the advantages of computer-based
training as compared to traditional methods: increased understanding and
retention, shorter training time, constant availability, flexibility of
use and considerable cost savings. Training is no longer dependent upon
having access to instruments, and can be tailored to individual requirements.
Trainees can watch the animation demonstrating the working of the instrument;
adjust parameters to see their effect; pursue their own lines of inquiry;
and return to areas of uncertainty. The software has a free flow, open-ended
structure which enables the user to browse freely through its pages, or
to follow the programmed order. Thus a useful session may last 10 minutes
or several hours.
