1. What is LCMS and how does it work? Explanation: This is a foundational question. LCMS combines liquid chromatography (LC) for separating compounds and mass spectrometry (MS) for detecting and identifying them based on mass-to-charge ratio (m/z). It is widely used...

1. What are the different types of HPLC columns? Reversed-phase columns: These are the most commonly used, where the stationary phase is nonpolar (e.g., C18). Polar compounds are retained longer. Normal-phase columns: The stationary phase is polar, while the mobile...

What is Gas Chromatography and how does it work? Gas Chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and analyze compounds that can be vaporized without decomposition. In GC, a sample is injected into a heated injection port, where it is vaporized. The...
