ION CHROMATOGRAPHY TRAINING COURSE
This course explores the key principles of ion chromatography (IC), focusing on how separations are achieved and the practical considerations necessary for developing robust, routine analytical methods. Key topics include ion exchange separation mechanisms, stationary phases, eluents, retention models, and instrumentation.
Instrumentation topics covered include buffer and eluent generation, pumping systems, injection systems, suppression modes, and detection techniques. The course also provides guidance on basic troubleshooting and maintenance to help analysts identify and resolve atypical chromatographic behaviour.
By developing a fundamental understanding of how the instrument works, analysts will gain confidence in using IC, enhance their self-sufficiency, and reduce the likelihood of errors.
