Relative retention time as a better inter-laboratory comparator — does this still hold?
I had written a reply contradicting post #5 and deleted it. Here is what survived.
The most useful single question about a method: what would it fail to detect? Every method has an answer and few documents state it.
Scoping that to what I have actually seen rather than what I have read.
Everything in post #5 holds. The case it does not cover is the one I have.
Relative retention time has been discussed here with more heat than it deserves, mostly because two definitions have been in play the whole time.
Everything in post #8 holds. The case it does not cover is the one I have.
Nobody has said the unglamorous part of Relative retention time yet, so: most of the variation is explained by things that are boring to write about and easy to check.
Peak purity assessment using a diode-array detector checks whether a peak is spectrally homogeneous. It is a weak test and it is better than not looking.
