Meaningful Answers from One HPLC Detector What is the best way to detect and quantify analytes with HPLC? There is no simple answer. UV detection is the most widely used, but fails to detect analytes without chromophores. Other, so-called “universal detectors” have fallen short of the promise of combining application versatility with reliability. For many, MS is not the answer. Now there is a solution – the Corona® Charged Aerosol Detector (CAD®). Based on a unique and innovative detection method, the Corona CAD detector offers performance that refractive index (RI), low wavelength UV,...

How Charged Aerosol Detection Works Charged Aerosol Detection What makes any detector useful is its ability to accurately measure a wide range of analytes with consistent response. However, most detectors exhibit limitations. Often, one analyte responds more strongly than another, or may not respond at all. The Corona CAD detector measures charge that is imparted to analyte particles, with the charge being in direct proportion to the amount of the analyte in the sample. Measuring this charge is accurate and consistent, regardless of the analyte. The result is that the Corona CAD detector...

Consistent Response with Low Limits of Detection Consistent Response Detector Response for Nonvolatiles 10.7% RSD variation in CAD response among 1.0 µg samples by flow injection 250,000 200,000 150,000 100,000 50,000 Warfarin Gentisic acid Tartaric acid Salicylic acid The response obtained with the Corona CAD for nonvolatile analytes is less dependent on chemical structure than other detectors. As shown in the figure, charged aerosol detection response by flow injection analysis is very similar for equivalent amounts of a wide diversity of structures. Charged aerosol detection response...

Enhanced Performance Gradient Compatibility The Corona CAD detector is fully compatible with gradient operation. Volatile mobile phases such as those used with MS are appropriate for use with the Corona CAD. The figure shows a five minute linear gradient from 10 mM ammonium acetate/2% IPA in H20 to 10 mM ammonium acetate in 75% ACN/25% MeOH. In the example, note the increased nebulization efficiency with increased organic solvent observed during a reversed phase gradient.

Superior Performance for your Applications Sodium Chloride 0.15% Chloride Spike 0.1% Chloride Spike No Spike Complementary and Orthogonal Data The Corona CAD’s unique method of detection produces data complementary to that of UV and MS. When three detectors are used to analyze the same sample, all respond based on distinctly different physicochemical properties, providing truly orthogonal data. MS only detected two of the three species. With the Corona CAD, three peaks with similar responses were observed – you not only see what you think is in your sample, but what is actually there....
