Abstract

This application highlight demonstrates an assay for the analysis of abacavir and related substances that was successfully transferred from an Agilent 1100 Series LC System to an ACQUITY UPLC H-Class System.

Introduction

When transferring a method to a different HPLC/UHPLC instrument, the new instrumentation must provide the same separation and meet all of the system suitability requirements of the original method/instrument. For gradient separations, the impact of dwell volume can be dramatic and should be considered when transferring a method across chromatographic instruments.

Results and Discussion

Agilent 1100 Series LC System

ACQUITY UPLC H-Class System

Conclusion

An assay for the analysis of abacavir and related substances was successfully transferred from an Agilent 1100 Series LC System to an ACQUITY UPLC H-Class System. Using gradient SmartStart Technology in the instrument method, the differences in system volume were factored into the method. No changes to the gradient table were required.
