Agilent ZORBAX GF-250 Application Note: Comparison of Denaturing and non-Denaturing Mobile Phases
This document is an application brief by Robert D. Ricker from Agilent Technologies regarding size-exclusion chromatography (SEC). It discusses the use of standard non-denaturing mobile phases versus denaturing mobile phases containing guanidine hydrochloride (GuCl) or SDS. The text explains that denaturing phases are used to ensure un-aggregated monomers for proper size determination, noting that this shifts molecules toward larger apparent sizes and smaller retention volumes.
