Description
Summary:Photodiode array detectors--variously abbreviated as "PDA detectors" or simply "DADs"--are essentially spectrophotometers that transiently measure the absorbance of light by a liquid flowing past. They are the dominant detector type used in applications such as liquid chromatography (LC) to yield information about the identity, quantity, and purity of sample separations as they exit the column. Here, Roberts discusses an array of possibilities for (U)HPLC detection.
