Choosing the Right Detector: A look at the most common detectors for HPLC

In this session of our LC Learning Series, we will explore the most common detectors for High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presentation will focus primarily on optical detection, such as UV/Vis, Photodiode Array, Fluorescence and Refractive Index detectors, however other HPLC detectors will also be considered.
The objective of this presentation is to provide a basic understanding of the theory of operation, advantages and disadvantages of these detectors, and what to consider when choosing a detector for a particular analysis. Common application examples will be given.
Presenter: Adrian Garcia Sega (Application Scientist, PerkinElmer)
Adrian joined PerkinElmer last year as anapplication scientist developing strategic applications for the LC product portfolio. Previously, he spent eight years in higher-education teaching chemistry and forensic science to graduate and undergraduate students. His teaching was focused on integrating technology into the classroom and developing active-learning activities and experiments to improve student comprehension and engagement.
