Column Equilibration in HILIC Mode
contributed by Ace |
ABSTRACT
In order to obtain stable and reproducible retention times, it is essential to fully equilibrate HILIC columns with mobile phase prior to analysis to ensure a stable adsorbed water layer exists at the stationary phase surface. Similarly, after performing a gradient run, the column requires re-equilibration to the gradient starting conditions and formation of a stable adsorbed water layer.
