HPLC system
Detectors
• have high sensitivity and predictable response
• respond to all solutes
• be unaffected by changes in temperature and carrier flow
• respond independently of the mobile phase
• not contribute to extra-column peak broadening
• be reliable and convenient to use
• have a response that increases linearly with the amount of solute
• be nondestructive of the solute
• provide qualitative information on the detected peak
UV/VIS detectors
- The principle: the Beer’s Law
- Wave-length range of 190–600 nm
- single wavelength: bandwidth of 5–8 nm
- analytes have UV absorbance

Schematic of a refractive index (RI) detector
Characteristics of Refractive Index Detectors
-Excellent versatility; all solutes can be detected
-Moderate sensitivity
-Generally not useful for trace analyses
-Not useful for gradient elution
-Efficient heat-exchanger required

-Sensitive to temperature changes
-Reliable, fairly easy to operate
-Nondestructive
Electrochemical (amperometric) detectors
- Great selectivity for electroactive compounds
- Relying on the oxidation or reduction of compounds
- The difference of current between polarizable and reference electrodes

Chemiluminescent nitrogen detector (CLND)

- Nebulizing the HPLC eluent with oxygen and a carrier gas of argon or helium → pyrolyzed at 1050◦C
- Nitrogen-containing compounds (except N2) are oxidized to nitric oxide (NO)
→ mixed with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide in the excited state (NO2*)
- NO2* change to the ground state releasing a Photon → detected by a photometer.

Light-scattering detectors
Analyzing substance that are less volatile than the mobile phase
Evaporative light-scattering detector (ELSD)
![Page 11: HPLC Detectors](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022012401/577cc9bb1a28aba711a4765b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ELSD Detection Principles
1. Nebulization: The mobile phase is converted into a spray of minute droplets using a gas stream.
2. Evaporation of Mobile Phase The droplets are carried into a heated drift tube where the mobile phase evaporates and the target components dry and are converted into minute particles.
3. Detection: The scattered light created by the collision of light with the minute particles that emerge from the drift tube is detected.

Chiral detectors
1. Polarimeters (PL)
Measuring the degree of rotation of polarized light (typically in the 400–700 nm range) as it passes through the sample
2. Optical rotary dispersion (ORD) detector
Operating on a similar principle to polarimeters, but using lower wavelengths (e.g., the 365-nm mercury emission line).
3. Circular dichroism (CD) detectors
Measuring the difference in absorption of right and left circularly polarized light
