I'm reading about gas chromatography at the moment and the notes I'm reading mentioned a "generic scouting gradient" but didn't explain what it is. I've been googling it and found a few HPLC tutorials (in GC its temperature gradient whereas in the HPLC tutorials they're talking about mobile phase composition gradient) which mentioned it but they don't explain what it is either. I'm aware that a "scouting gradient" is some kind of technique used to determine a good GC (or HPLC) method before performing the analysis but how does it work?
