Vanquish™ Flex UHPLC System eLearning courses

The Vanquish™ Flex UHPLC System eLearning courses provide you with foundational knowledge and basic skills that you need to use and benefit from your instrument. You will find a series of eLearning courses which can cover different topics such as foundational theory and/or basic operations principle and/or user maintenance and troubleshooting.

The Vanquish™ Flex UHPLC System Foundational Theory eLearning course is an introduction to the general theories associated with High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The course examines basic chromatography theories and how different factors affect the chromatography of different types of samples. The standard parts of the HPLC system and analysis of samples will be explored. Some of the modules in this course include:

• Identifying key components of a chromatogram and the components that cause variations
• Different separation types based on types of columns, packing materials and flow rates
• Basic HPLC modules and their functions
• Basic examples of separation and the influence of altering chromatography conditions.

This Foundational Theory eLearning course is similar to the Vanquish™ Horizon, Vanquish™ Core and the UltiMate™ 3000.

The Vanquish™ Flex UHPLC System Basic Operations with Chromeleon™ eLearning course will begin by teaching general HPLC considerations that are important to understand before using your instrument. Next, you will complete a series of eLearning modules on each of the instrument components, including various types of pumps and detectors available with your instrument. You will conclude the course with training on how to equilibrate your instrument and the specifics of setting up automated analysis using Thermo Scientific™ Chromeleon™ Chromatography Data System (CDS) software. This course is designed for new users who want to learn how to use/run basic experiments on the instrument. Included in the eLearning series are the following learning modules:

• General HPLC considerations
• Pump operating principles and key parameters
• Autosampler operating principles and key parameters
• Column compartment operating principles and key parameters
• Detector operating principles and key parameters
• Instrument equilibration
• Automated analysis

This Basic Operations eLearning course is similar to the Vanquish™ Horizon and Vanquish™ Core.
