Applications:

HPLC Separation of Mixture of DMF and DMSO
Dimethylformamide, DMF, is primarily used as an organic solvent and is miscible with water and most other organic liquids. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is also a solvent. It can dissolve both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible with water and other organic liquids. Both compounds can be retained and separated using anhydrous (water-free) conditions using HPLC by SHARC 1 column, which uses hydrogen-bonding as a separation mechanism. The method uses a gradient of acetonitrile (ACN) and methanol (MeOH) mobile phase without the need for a buffer. UV detection used at 220nm.
