Practical HPLC Method Development (2nd Ed) by L.R. Snyder et al.

Book Description

This revision brings the reader completely up to date on the evolving methods associated with increasingly more complex sample types analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography, or HPLC. The book also incorporates updated discussions of many of the fundamental components of HPLC systems and practical issues associated with the use of this analytical method. This edition includes new or expanded treatments of sample preparation, computer assisted method development, as well as biochemical samples, and chiral separations. 

Book Info

Provides comprehensive coverage of all of the essential steps of method development: sample pretreatment, detection of sample bands, choosing separation conditions, quantification, and method of validation and transfer. DLC: High performance liquid chromatography - Methodology.

A great book - information overload, July 15, 2002

This is a very useful reference to have if you work extensively on HPLC. I find its of more use to understand concepts ...there is a lot of information here.

Which means - if you are looking for a solution to a problem and you want to research separation theory - a great book.

If your looking for a quick fix to an HPLC problem - not as good. This is a detailed, extensive and well written text on HPLC Method development - wish there was more on validation here though.
