  • Patent number: 11478727
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the determination of analytes in a sample using chromatography. The present disclosure provides methods of separating an analyte from a sample. A mobile phase is flowed through a chromatography column. The mobile phase includes about 0.005% (v/v) to about 2.50% (v/v) difluoroacetic acid and less than about 100 ppb of any individual impurity, especially metal impurities. A sample including the analyte is injected into the mobile phase. The analyte is separated from the sample.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: October 25, 2022
    Assignee: Waters Technologies Corporation

  • Patent number: 11433320
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the determination of analytes in a sample using chromatography. The present disclosure provides methods of separating an analyte from a sample. A mobile phase is flowed through a chromatography column. The mobile phase includes about 0.005% (v/v) to about 0.20% (v/v) difluoroacetic acid and less than about 100 ppb of any individual metal impurity. A sample including the analyte is injected into the mobile phase. The analyte is separated from the sample.

  • Publication number: 20210255196
    Abstract: The present disclosure discusses a method of separating a sample (e.g., peptide compound) including coating a flow path of a chromatographic system; injecting the sample into the chromatographic system; flowing the sample through the chromatographic system; separating the sample; and analyzing the separated sample. In some examples, the coating applied to the surfaces defining the flow path is non-binding with respect to the sample—and the separated sample. Consequently, the sample does not bind to the low-binding surface of the coating (e.g., organosilica coating) of the flow path. The applied coating can reduce peak tailing and increase analyte recovery for the sample of the chromatographic system.
