Sugar analysis is complex, bcause many sugars are very similar, have almost identical polarity and no UV chromaphore. This course covers the main ways to analyse sugars, and by the end of the course the analyst should know enough to select the most appropriate approach to their sugar separation.

The course runs over two days. The first day is spent in the training room, considering the various ways to analyse sugars, at both low and high concentrations, using normal phase, ligand exchange, size exclusion and ion chromatography. For specialised analyses of complex mixtures it is sometimes only possible to separate mono or disaccharides, but we also look at oligos and polysaccharides. We consider the merits of refractive index, light scattering and electrochemical detectors.

Then for the second day we go to the lab, and run a range of sugar samples using various methods. Participants can if they wish bring samples to try, and they can also bring their own columns for comparison. This is usually a very popular day and especially useful if you have a problem sugar separation.

This course is run on an 'as required' basis. The minimum number of participants is 4. Contact us to register your interest.
