WHY Did That Happen?

When we encounter unexpected things with our chromatography, we wonder why did that happen? As we look at these problems, we’ll also take a closer look at our sample and mobile phase to better understand how they may be contributing to our chromatography problems.

A better understanding of where problems can come from helps us narrow down the possibilities, solve our problem faster, and identify ways to prevent them from happening in the future.
