Hi there
We have shimdazu lab solution softwear . Where signal to ratio calculation is difficult.
Someone who can guide how to calculate ?
Activate QC parameters in METHOD drop down menù. Select noise and drift and set critiria. Normally i use ASTM for noise and save the method, then start a run without injection (-1 in the batch vial position). In the browser open the data file, drag over the method. In a drop down menù you find execute QC and noise drift report in created with resulta pass o fail. there are other method to obtail noise drift calculation in labsolutions software but this is the simplest
In Lab solutions to calculate signal by noise ratio first integrate blank and use the option in integration parameters select the option of signal and drift select the usp not astmand save.
after blank integrate the analyte and keep the spectral reference data of blank it automatically provide the s/N
Can we do custom calculations with Shimadzu Lab solutions software? If yes what are the steps to be followed?

What is the possible causes that affect peak to valley ratio?
Standard preparation? System? Column?
But I'm using a new column
mostly caused by poor column. maybe you probably injected too much sample which exceeded the capacity of the column.
if you r using new columns the wrong standard preparation and in few cases if system is not in good condition.

Why does baseline noise occur and how can it be minimize?
✅ 1. Detector-related causes:
Lamp instability: UV or DAD detectors depend on a stable light source; an aging or unstable lamp will cause noise.
Detector cell contamination: Dirty flow cell → light scattering → increased noise.
Temperature fluctuations inside the detector (especially in refractive index detectors).
✅ 2. Mobile phase-related causes:
Impurities in solvents: Even high-purity solvents may contain UV-absorbing impurities.
Air bubbles: Entrained gases passing through the detector cause spikes or drifting noise.
Incomplete degassing of mobile phase.
✅ 3. System-related causes:
Pump pulsation: Mechanical inconsistencies cause pressure and flow fluctuations → noise.
Leaks or loose fittings → flow instability → noisy baseline.
Column issues: Damaged or contaminated columns may cause unstable baseline.
Types of HPLC Columns –What to Use and When
Column choice isn't just about C18! ?
From amino to phenyl, each stationary phase brings something unique to your separation.
✅ Here's a visual guide to help you choose the right column based on:
• Analyte polarity
• Functional groups
• Interaction types
• Application fields (e.g., sugars, peptides, phenolics, pharmaceuticals)
? Choosing the wrong column can cost you resolution, time, and sample integrity. Don’t waste injections — get it right the first time!
? What’ss your favorite go-to column, and what do you use it for?

Pressure fluctuation in hplc..
Causes..??
How to correct..?
check the system for air bubbles or leakage
Bad purge between primary and accumulator plungers. or maybe a leak. check all tubing and connections
bubbles on your system, because bad purgue o review bottle mobile phase
I have been observing the rare seal leakage while running thermo ultimate 3000 series. Whats the solution to it? How we can rectify it ? Why does it occuring always ? Please anyone explain me in detail
