Abstract

Robustness tests were performed on a reversed-phase HPLC assay for triadimenol. Different experimental designs were compared. Two-level fractional factorial designs with different resolutions were used to study the influence of procedure-related factors. The factors chromatographic column manufacturer at four levels and instrument at three levels were stepwise included in the study using asymmetrical factorial designs. The significance of the factor effects was determined statistically, using two types of error estimates in the calculation of critical effects, and graphically, by means of half-normal plots. The asymmetrical designs turned out to be an efficient and economic method to examine the influence of factors at different numbers of levels in the robustness testing of analytical methods.
