Step 3: Set up routine methods
In routine analysis, sample matrices can have a significant influence on retention times.
For reliable results, sample preparation must be thorough to avoid interferences or LC
methods must be rugged enough. With difficult matrices, simultaneous multi-wavelength
detection offers more reliability than timetable-controlled wavelength switching. The
Agilent 1100 Series FLD can, in addition, acquire fluorescence spectra while it records
the detector signals for quantitative analysis. Therefore qualitative data are available for
peak confirmation and purity checks in routine analysis.
