Flow diagram for modelling based on the manual approach

 

Optional determination of Vm Vd, ECBB and confirm linearity of gradient profile

►

Select appropriate samples (that is, forced degradation, mother liquors etc.)

►

Select suitable retention model (for example, log()= qqF + qF2.)

►

Select appropriate input experiments (tG, T etc.)

►

Write methods and sequence (allowing sufficient time to equilibrate the new conditions)

►

Collect input data for fitting and evaluation of models (typically performed overnight)

►

Perform peak assignment / tracking (using MS, UV DAD, or peak areas), determine peak area, width, and asymmetry

►

Produce Excel tables for each input experiment, copy, and paste into retention software input section

►

Enter chromatographic conditions used

►

Combine each individual input run into one large combined table

►

Transfer input data to modelling software and fit models

►

Evaluate resolution as a function of the operating variable examined (that is, gradient shape and T)

►

Establish operational parameters fit for purpose (that is, identify robust conditions)

►

Collection of data for confirmation of optimal conditions

►

Optional in silico evaluation of other column formats, particle size, and flow
