After you input the required information, the calculator displays the target method conditions. The
calculator automatically displays the L/dp of the existing method column and the target column.
Because the dwell volumes of the ACQUITY UPLC H-Class system are far smaller than those of
a conventional HPLC system, often a gradient hold is required.
Identical chemistries are available in UPLC and HPLC columns simplifying their selection and
allowing for a simple method transfer from the ACQUITY UPLC H-Class system to standard
analytical HPLC.
Finally, note that the chromatographic conditions provided by the calculator serve as a starting
point. You can further optimize these conditions based on the requirements for the separation.
