GC Troubleshooting: 7+ Common Problems and Their Solution
GC troubleshooting involves identifying and resolving common problems that can affect peak shape, retention time, resolution, sensitivity, and reproducibility GC systems can experience performance issues that affect accuracy, precision, and efficiency. In this article, I will discuss quick identification and resolution of these problems to ensure reliable results and minimise downtime GC Troubleshooting The process […]
What is GC Bleeding And How It Affect GC Analysis
GC bleeding, also known as GC column bleed, occurs when the stationary phase thermally degrades at temperatures near the column’s upper limit, leading to unwanted baseline noise or artefacts. GC bleeding can reduce the quality, damage the detectors, and increase the analysis costs. In this post, we’ll break down what GC bleeding is, why it […]
Reverse Phase And Normal Phase HPLC: Why Reverse Phase Is More Common

Reverse Phase and Normal Phase HPLC are widely used in pharmaceutical development, still Reverse-Phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) is preferred over Normal-Phase HPLC (NP-HPLC) due to its better compatibility, broader analyte range, simpler method development, and easier system stabilisation. Reverse Phase And Normal Phase HPLC: Why Reverse Phase Is More Common? The following 6 main key reasons explain […]

Pharmaceutical analysis is a significant contributor to the overall cost of drug development and manufacturing. For companies striving to stay competitive while adhering to stringent regulatory requirements, the challenge is clear: how do you reduce the cost of pharmaceutical analysis without compromising quality? Pharmaceutical Analysis: Tips to Reduce Cost Without Compromising Quality Pharmaceutical analysis plays […]
Why Is Starch Added at the End of an Iodometric Titration

In Iodometric Titration, starch gives a water-insoluble complex with iodine. This water-insoluble complex creates problems in detecting the actual endpoint. This means that the endpoint appears before the actual endpoint. That is why the starch indicator is added just before the end point when the colour is pale-straw yellow. In analytical chemistry, iodometric titration stands […]
