Applications of HPLC Grade Water
1. High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
- Used as a mobile phase component for accurate and reproducible chromatographic separations.
- Ensures low baseline noise and prevents unwanted interactions with analytes.
- Reduces peak broadening, improving resolution and detection sensitivity.
2. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS)
- Essential for sample preparation, dilution, and instrument rinsing.
- Ensures minimal ion suppression and interference, allowing precise mass spectrometry analysis.
3. Pharmaceutical and Biotechnological Research
- Used in the preparation of buffers, standards, and reagents for drug development.
- Complies with stringent pharmaceutical regulatory standards for laboratory testing.
4. Environmental and Food Testing
- Required for trace-level contaminant analysis, including pesticide and heavy metal detection.
- Ensures high accuracy and reproducibility in environmental and food safety studies.
5. Clinical and Biomedical Research
- Used in clinical assays, diagnostic applications, and molecular biology experiments.
- Guarantees contaminant-free results in highly sensitive testing environments.
Purification Process
HPLC Grade Water undergoes a rigorous multi-step purification process to remove ionic, organic, and microbial contaminants:
- Reverse Osmosis (RO) – Eliminates dissolved solids and large contaminants.
- Deionization (DI) – Removes ionic impurities, ensuring ultra-low conductivity.
- Ultrafiltration – Eliminates particulates and microbial contaminants.
- UV Oxidation – Reduces Total Organic Carbon (TOC) to prevent background interference.
- Final 0.2 µm Filtration – Removes any remaining particulates for sterility.
Each batch undergoes strict quality control testing to meet HPLC-grade specifications before packaging.
Storage and Handling Guidelines
-
Storage Conditions:
- Keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Store in a clean, dedicated area to prevent contamination.
- Avoid exposure to volatile chemicals, as water can absorb airborne contaminants.
-
Shelf Life:
- Typically 12–24 months under proper storage conditions.
- Once opened, use within the recommended period to maintain purity.
-
Handling Precautions:
- Use sterile labware to avoid introducing contaminants.
- Do not expose to dust, plasticizers, or organic solvents.
