Academy Savant's first series of e-learning programmes in HPLC is now completed with the publication of the fifth module: 'Introduction to qualitative and quantitative HPLC analysis'
This e-learning module is available both online and on CD with licenses for single-user or network/intranet deployment.
The authors are John Dolan, who writes the HPLC Troubleshooting column in LCGC Magazine, and Dennis Saunders, the creator of previous versions of Savant's best-selling computer-based HPLC and GC training programmes.
This module builds on the concepts of qualitative and quantitative analysis that were briefly introduced in the previous module.
Several techniques for identifying and confirming the identity of peaks are presented.
The steps leading to accurate determination of component concentration are discussed, including separation optimisation, peak measurement and method validation.
Building on the best features of the earlier versions, such as the use of interactive animations and simulations to explain and illustrate HPLC, the program features a modernised interface, narration, an assessment quiz with automatic scoring and revision hyperlinks, a glossary and bibliography.
The customisation capability on the CD edition enables instructors to augment the basic content.
