FAQs about ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column
What type of biomolecular characterization is the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column specifically designed for?
The ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column is optimized for the separation of proteins and peptides based on size, making it suitable for characterizing protein complexes, aggregates, and fragments in detail.
Can ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column be utilized for quantitative protein analysis?
Yes, the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column can be used for quantitative analysis as it provides consistent and reproducible retention times and peak areas, which are essential for quantitation.
How does temperature control affect the performance of the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column?
Temperature control can significantly impact the performance of the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column by influencing protein conformation and interaction with the stationary phase, thus affecting the resolution and reproducibility of separations.
Is the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column compatible with a wide range of mobile phases for flexibility in protein separation?
Yes, the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column is designed to be compatible with a variety of mobile phases, allowing for flexibility in optimizing protein separations according to specific research needs.
Are salt gradients applicable when using the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column for protein analysis?
Typically, salt gradients are not used with the ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column as size exclusion chromatography relies on size-based separation, although certain conditions may warrant the use of salt to enhance protein recovery or stability.
How Do I Troubleshoot My ACQUITY UPLC Protein BEH SEC Column?
The first step is to compare the current column performance to performance when your column was last functioning properly. Functional tests with protein mixture may reveal subtle changes to surface chemistry that impact the application. Common symptoms of change to the column may include an increase in pressure, or a loss of resolution paired with increased peak tailing that may be caused by microbial contamination. Increased peak tailing can also be caused by a failure of a tubing connector or material build-up on the column inlet frit.
