Sub 2Sub 2µµm Particle Chromatographym Particle ChromatographyUltraPerformance LCUltraPerformance LC®®
Efficiency inversely proportional to particle size
Flow rate increases with the inverse of particle size
Back pressure increases with the inverse square of particle size.
Thus sub 2µm columns bring :-
— Faster analysis faster flow ratefaster flow rate
— Higher operating pressures particle sizeparticle size

Why Use Higher TemperaturesWhy Use Higher Temperatures??
Reduce solvent viscosity = lower back-pressure—Facilitates the use of longer
columns—Allows smaller particles to be
used on conventional equipmentIncreased throughput—Lower back-pressure and
increased optimum flow rate means the flow can be increased
—analysis completed in a shorter time

Effect of Temperature on Effect of Temperature on Analyte SelectivityAnalyte Selectivity
Raising the column temperature reduces analyte retention.
Temperature affects retention differently for different analytes.
This makes it difficult to transfer high temperature methods to preparative scale.
Simple method transfer from HPLC to high temperature, small particle LC or UPLC is not straightforward.

Opening the Solvent EnvelopeOpening the Solvent Envelopeviscous organic modifiersviscous organic modifiers
Higher temperatures reduce mobile phase viscosity.
Reducing mobile phase viscosity allows the use of solvents too viscous for room temperature operation.
These solvents, such as ethanol, IPA, DMSO, DMF, have different selectivity from methanol and acetonitrile

Natural Product AnalysisNatural Product Analysiswith high temperature UPLCwith high temperature UPLC®®
Natural products are often extremely complex mixtures
They present one of the most challenging tasks for separation science
Higher temperatures allow the use of longer columns and higher flow rates to produce very high resolution chromatograms
This combination allows the identification of new endogenous components

Effect of Narrow Peaks on MS Data Effect of Narrow Peaks on MS Data QualityQuality
Narrow peaks approximately 1 second wide at base require a fast data capture rate MS
10 – 20 spectra per second
How does this effect MS data quality and mass accuracy?
©2007 Waters Corporation 33
Issues with Accurate Mass and Fast Issues with Accurate Mass and Fast Separations Separations
To acquire a reliable accurate mass normally requires relatively long data acquisition times
UPLC peak widths are in the order of 1-2 seconds at the base
Accurate, reproducible peak integration requires >15 points across the peak
This means a duty cycle of 130mSec
Typically for Orbitrap acquisition times of 0.5 to 1Sec for high resolution and accurate mass
This would mean only 2-4 points across the peak
©2007 Waters Corporation 34
Number of Data Points Per Peak Number of Data Points Per Peak as recommended by as recommended by ““IonSource.comIonSource.com””
At least 15 to 20 points across a chromatographic peak for good quantification.
If you have fewer points you will not be able to describe the peak adequately and may lose information (e.g. peak top)
Reproducibility is negatively affected with fewer points and you will observe RSD’s increasing to unacceptable values.

Data dependent MS and MS/MS Data dependent MS and MS/MS
But what if you want to do MS/MS?—Well the then you need an even faster MS data
acquisition rate—Inter acquisition delay can become significantly
largeOption is not to acquire MS/MS in exact mass mode—This can lead to miss interpretation of the data—Fast switching can reduce MS/MS resolution
and accuracy—with a duty cycle of 350mSec, and UPLC®
there would be only 3 points across the peak total MS and MS/MS

ConclusionConclusion
High temperature LC and UPLC® allow faster separation
Efficiency is not improved at higher temperatures
Higher column temperature need higher flow rates
Higher temperatures enable the use of longer columns
Alternative solvents can be used at higher temperatures for unique selectivity
Column bleed can be an issue at higher temperatures—ACQUITY® BEH offers the minimal column bleed.
Narrow peaks require fast scanning UV and MS detectors
