High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) is a
powerful analytical technique used in laboratories across various industries,
including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and environmental science, to
separate, identify, and quantify components in complex mixtures. One of the key
detectors used in HPLC is the Evaporative Light Scattering Detector (ELSD),
which is particularly useful for detecting compounds that are non-UV active or
have low absorbance in the ultraviolet spectrum.
In this blog post, we’ll explore the principles of
HPLC ELSD, how it works, its advantages, and its applications, offering
insights into how this detector is used to enhance the accuracy and reliability
of chromatographic analysis.
