Summary

In this webinar, the successful purification of hydrophobic and difficult peptides is demonstrated using elevated temperature preparative HPLC. Learn how the use of an integrated heating system enables both the direct translation of elevated temperature methods to the preparative scale, as well as improved purity and recovery. Additionally, the benefits of Waters BEH reversed-phase columns for elevated temperature applications will be described.
