Mastering HILIC Chromatography: from Principles to Best Practice

This webinar provides a practical introduction to HILIC chromatography, focusing on retention mechanisms, stationary phase selection, mobile phase optimization, and method development strategies. Best practices for LC-MS applications, column care, and routine operation will also be discussed to help improve method robustness, reproducibility, and overall analytical results. 

Key Learning Points

• Introduction to HILIC: when and why to use HILIC
• Impact of stationary phase chemistry
• Method development scheme
• Column care & best practices

Who Should Attend

• This webinar is intended for analysts, researchers, and laboratory professionals working with HPLC and LC-MS in environmental, pharmaceutical, food, and quality control laboratories who are interested in developing, optimizing, and troubleshooting HILIC methods for polar compounds.
