    Abstract: Described is a solvent manager for a liquid chromatography system. The solvent manager includes a temperature control module, a plurality of solvent reservoirs, a gradient proportioning valve and a degasser. The temperature control module maintains a substantially constant temperature of one or more of the plurality of solvent reservoirs, gradient proportioning valve and degasser. The temperature control module may include a thermal chamber having an enclosure with a thermally controlled internal environment and may also include an active thermal element such as one or more heaters. The enclosure may surround at least one of the plurality of solvent reservoirs, gradient proportioning valve and degasser. The temperature control module reduces the negative effects on solvent composition that result from temperature-dependent changes in solvent viscosities and solvent densities. Such changes affect the retention times of analytes eluted from the chromatographic column.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a solvent supply (200) provided for a chromatography system (10) comprising a mobile phase drive and a separation unit, wherein the mobile phase drive is configured for driving a mobile phase through the separation unit, and the separation unit is configured for chromatographically separating compounds of a sample fluid in the mobile phase. The solvent supply (200) comprises a tubing (250) having a tubing end (260) configured to couple to a solvent container (220) in order to supply solvent contained in the solvent container (220) via the tubing (250) to the chromatography system (10), wherein the tubing (250) is configured in a flexible manner in order to allow the tubing end (260) to be movable. A tubing arm (280) is supporting the tubing (250) in order to allow positioning the tubing end (260) into a first resting position (290, 290') wherein the tubing end (260) is at least substantially held in position and being distantly situated beyond a reference (230; 295) in order to prevent physical contact to the reference (230; 295).

    Abstract: A method of enhancing a mass spectral signal is disclosed. The method can include contacting a sample to a separation column under conditions that permit sample components to bind to the substrate; applying a first mobile gradient to the separation column, wherein the first mobile phase gradient comprises trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and a small molecule additive (e.g., an amino acid) or formic acid (FA) and a small molecule additive (e.g., an amino acid); applying a second mobile gradient to the separation column, wherein the second mobile phase gradient comprises TFA in acetonitrile (ACN) and a small molecule additive (e.g., an amino acid) or formic acid (FA) in ACN and a small molecule additive (e.g., an amino acid); and performing mass spectrometric analysis on eluted sample components.

    Abstract: Described is a method for determining a dwell volume of a liquid chromatography system and a liquid chromatography system that can determined the system dwell volume. The method includes mixing a flow of a first solvent with a flow of a second solvent to form a solvent mixture. The flows of the first and second solvents are decreased and increased, respectively, to generate a gradient composition. A system pressure of the liquid chromatography system is measured to determine a pressure trace defined as the measured system pressure as a function of time. The dwell volume of the system is determined from a time delay determined between the gradient composition at the mixing location and the pressure trace. The method can be performed with a liquid chromatography system having a chromatographic column or a flow restrictor used in place of the chromatographic column.
