Alternate L1 Column used for the USP Assay Method of Tazobactam

This USP Tazobactam Assay was easily performed and the five injection overlay below demonstrates Run to Run consistency and Precision. The Peak Efficiency is very good and Peak Tailing guidelines are easily met.

This Application Note demonstrates a good Alternate Column for your Tazobactam USP Method.

Peak:


Tazobactam
