Separation Science, in collaboration with Agilent, offers an application note describing an oligonucleotide purification method with mass selective detection (MSD) that uses alternative, less costly reagents.
Application Overview
Synthetic oligonucleotides with fewer than 100 nucleotides are typically analysed and purified using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). For higher selectivity, mass selective detection (MSD) is often desired, although this technique requires high-purity, costly reagents such as hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). This application note from Agilent describes a purification method with MSD that uses alternative, less costly reagents. Target compounds were collected faster and with higher purity compared to conventional methods.
What you will learn:
- How to optimize oligonucleotide purification methods triggered by an MSD signal
- How to simplify method translation from analytical- to preparative-scale purification using Agilent Purification Software
- How to improve fraction collection using superficially porous particle columns
