5 Optimizing the Detector
Set the Detector Parameters
Set the Detector Parameters
1 Set peakwidth as close as possible to the width (at half height) of a narrow
peak of interest.
2 Choose the sample wavelength.
• at a longer wavelength than the cut-off wavelength of the mobile phase,
• at a wavelength where the analytes have strong absorptivity if you want to
get the lowest possible detection limit,
• at a wavelength with moderate absorptivity if you work with high
concentrations, and
• preferably where the spectrum is flat for better linearity.
3 Consider to use time-programming to further optimization.
