<h3>A Dedicated Solution for Oligonucleotide Analysis</h3>Oligonucleotides have become key players in modern pharmaceutical and biological research, particularly in the development of highly targeted and personalized therapies. As increasing numbers of oligonucleotide-based drugs enter clinical trials or receive regulatory approval, analytical laboratories face growing demands for both throughput and data quality. These molecules present unique chromatographic challenges due to their long, highly polar structures and subtle variations in nucleobase sequence or functionalization.<h3>Sepapure oliGO – Designed for Oligonucleotide Separations</h3>Selecting the optimal chromatographic approach for oligonucleotide analysis can be complex. Many laboratories rely on ion-pair reversed-phase (IP-RP) chromatography because of its speed, robustness, and compatibility with mass spectrometry. However, commonly used ion-pair reagents can degrade conventional silica-based stationary phases.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.knauer.net/columns-oligonucleotide-columns">Sepapure oliGO</a> addresses this limitation through a hybrid silica matrix combined with specialized surface end-capping, ensuring resistance to aggressive IP-RP reagents. Its functionalized surface enables both strong reversed-phase interactions and controlled ionic contributions, effectively creating a mixed-mode separation mechanism. This design results in improved durability compared with standard mixed-mode columns, making Sepapure oliGO a robust choice for routine oligonucleotide workflows.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/KNAUER_Figure_1_Sepapure_oli_GO_columns_with_laser_etched_column_information_23f545be81.jpg" alt="KNAUER: Figure 1 - Sepapure oliGO columns with laser-etched column information." srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_KNAUER_Figure_1_Sepapure_oli_GO_columns_with_laser_etched_column_information_23f545be81.jpg 223w," sizes="100vw" width="1186" height="828"><h3>Method Transfer and Comparative Performance</h3>In collaboration with BianoGMP GmbH, KNAUER’s application team evaluated Sepapure oliGO against a widely used reference column. The study compared oligonucleotides of varying lengths and purities, including a fully thiolated 43-mer DNA. Particular attention was paid to potential interactions between thiolated oligonucleotides and stainless-steel hardware, which have been reported to cause peak tailing.The results demonstrated that direct method transfer between the reference column and Sepapure oliGO was generally feasible without significant adjustment. Chromatographic resolution remained comparable, while retention times were slightly shorter on Sepapure oliGO. Furthermore, the anticipated benefits of expensive bioinert hardware were not confirmed under the tested conditions, suggesting that such effects may primarily influence very fast (U)HPLC separations.<img src="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/KNAUER_Figure_2_Overlayed_chromatogram_of_crude_product_of_a_43mer_thiolate_oligonucleotide_7ae9613efd.jpg" alt="KNAUER: Figure 2: Overlayed chromatogram of crude product of a 43mer thiolate oligonucleotide. Light blue - reference column and dark blue – Sepapure oliGO." srcset="https://storage.googleapis.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/thumbnail_KNAUER_Figure_2_Overlayed_chromatogram_of_crude_product_of_a_43mer_thiolate_oligonucleotide_7ae9613efd.jpg 245w," sizes="100vw" width="1223" height="453"><h3>Low Backpressure for Reliable Operation</h3>Sepapure oliGO can be applied effectively in both HPLC and (U)HPLC workflows. Its low operating backpressure minimizes risks associated with clogging, excessive system wear, and performance deterioration over time. Typical IP-RP separations using 3 µm particles generated pressures around 200 bar, enabling laboratories without ultra-high-pressure systems to perform high-quality oligonucleotide analysis.<h3>Best Practices for Column Performance</h3>To maintain optimal performance, users should observe recommended operating conditions, including a broad pH range of 1.5–10 and temperatures up to 60 °C. Employing a guard column can prevent coarse synthesis by-products from reaching the analytical column. If pressure increases are observed, backflushing at low flow rates can restore performance.When the system is idle, thorough flushing to remove salts is essential. For storage, the column should be kept in a 1:1 mixture of methanol–water or acetonitrile–water. Gradient transitions are recommended when switching between standard RP eluents and IP-RP reagents. Regeneration procedures developed for RP columns are also suitable for Sepapure oliGO.<h3>Beyond Analytical Separations</h3>For large-scale purification, ion-exchange chromatography (AEX) may offer advantages. Scalable preparative systems are available to support purification workflows, ranging from compact laboratory setups to pilot-scale platforms with flow rates up to 800 mL/min. Bioinert configurations can be integrated where required, allowing laboratories to tailor purification solutions to their specific oligonucleotide applications.<blockquote><ul><li>If you're planning to set up or optimize your oligonucleotide workflow, feel free to contact us at sales@knauer.net.

Environmental Analysis Application Experts Panel Discussion

Part 1. Explore the latest innovations in environmental analysis and uncover new solutions for conventional water analysis. The presentation will focus on the major applications for water analysis: anions, cations, disinfection byproducts, bromate, perchlorate, and hexavalent chromium. We will discuss EPA and ASTM methods as well as explore some new column and instrument technologies that provide better reproducibility, resolution, and most importantly, confidence in your results.
Part 2. Haloacetic acids (HAAs) are among the disinfection byproducts (DBP) produced during chlorination of water containing natural organic matter and bromide. Determination of HAAs by EPA method 552.3 using GC-ECD is challenging and time-consuming, requiring extraction and derivatization that can take up to four hours. Ion chromatography-mass spectrometry (IC-MS/MS), per EPA Method 557, offers a fast, sensitive, and selective alternative that does not require sample preparation. Results show the amount of HAA5 (MCAA, DCAA, TCAA, MBAA, and MCAA) is less than the maximum contaminant level of 60 ppb. Results show HAA9, bromate, and Dalapon can be analyzed in 35 minutes using the new Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ IonPac™ AS31 anion exchange column.

Solutions for Analysis in Food and Beverages Save Time by using IC

Controlling water chemistry is a critical part of preventing corrosion, and companies will spend billions of dollars every year to preserve valuable water system infrastructure and win the battle against corrosion. A comprehensive corrosion program includes monitoring and managing three key parameters: corrosion inducing ions, corrosion preventing chemicals and corrosion products. Monitoring and controlling these three parameters is crucial to maintaining production and increasing safety. While corrosion is inevitable, the damage caused by corrosion can be monitored, treated and controlled.
In this webinar, Lindsey Linn, chemist at Duke Energy Central Lab will share her experience using ion chromatography for corrosion monitoring at various Duke Energy plants. Using actual application examples, she&#39;ll show us how her lab overcame challenges caused by the difficult matrices often found in the energy sector. Following her presentation, Shibu Paul will discuss the instrument hardware used to conquer these challenging matrices. He will also address variation in corrosion monitoring across different industries, including chemical, polymer and refining. Stay until the end of our webinar and get your specific questions answered by our experts during a live Q&amp;A session.
<h3>Key Learning Objectives</h3>
<ul>
<li>Understand how to conduct risk assessment of corrosive ions</li>
<li>Learn how to automate your trace level calibrations</li>
<li>Learn techniques to optimize the method for challenging matrices</li>
</ul>
<h3>Who Should Attend</h3>
<ul>
<li>Lab managers, Plant Managers and EH&amp;S officers from refineries and power plants</li>
<li>Commercial utility managers from municipal water organizations and waste water treatment sites</li>
<li>Lab managers, QA/QC managers, production managers from automotive manufacturing, mining, pulp and paper</li>
