Abstract: An electrospray emitter assembly for interfacing a separation column to a mass spectrometer is disclosed. An emitter capillary includes an inlet end and an outlet end. A fitting is coupled to the inlet end of the emitter, configured to be removably connected to the separation column. A stop with a defined through hole is integrated proximate the inlet end of the emitter to produce a path for liquid to flow from the separation column to the emitter via the through hole where a voltage is applied to the liquid entering the emitter.

Abstract: A method of packing a chromatography column, including: dispersing chromatographic media particles in a slurry solution to form a slurry, filling a chromatography column with the chromatographic media particles by introducing the slurry to the column and applying a pressure to pack the chromatographic media particles in the chromatography column. The slurry solution is preferably aqueous based slurry solution. The pressure is preferably applied and held substantially constant for a first period at a first pressure and is applied and held substantially constant for a second period, following the first period, at a second pressure higher than the first pressure.
