I'm doing determinations of amino acid concentrations (using OPA, Agilent Zorbax Eclipse C18 column & a variation/combination of an Agilent and a Dionex instrumentation methods). I get good peaks in some regions, but some blend together too closely. I don't want to go slower, I'm already running at 40 minutes per sample.
I currently have the HPLC running at 0.72mL/min, but in playing with the method I found decent results if I changed part-way to a 0.48mL/min and back again.
Is this kosher?
