Advances in ultra‐high‐pressure and multi‐dimensional liquid chromatography instrumentation and workflows

Abstract The present contribution discusses recent advances in ultra‐high‐pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC) and multi‐dimensional liquid chromatography (MDLC) technology. First, new developments in UHPLC column technology and system design are highlighted. The latter includes a description of a novel injector concept enabling method speed‐up, emerging detectors, and instrument diagnostics approaches. Next, online MDLC workflows are reviewed and advances in modulation technology are highlighted. Finally, key applications published in 2020 are reviewed.
