Ultraviolet Monitoring of Chromatography Performance by Orthogonal Partial Least Squares

Abstract:

Disclosed are methods for monitoring column chromatography performance. The methods can include acquiring one or more chromatogram ultraviolet (UV) traces generated by a chromatography system during sample purification and/or separation; and analyzing the one or more acquired chromatogram UV traces with an orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS) model, thereby allowing detection of column deterioration prior to column failure and quantitative analysis of UV signal in the one or more chromatogram UV traces.
