saccharide detection

[mardexis]

Any comparisons between the condensation nucleation ELSD being distributed by Alltech and the CAD from ESA? The specs look similar with regard to LOD and dynamic range. Does anybody know of any published comparisons between the two or does anybody have any direct experience using them?

Thanks,
Marc

PS: I am looking at various saccharides with amino columns and ACN/H2O

I have experience with Sedex-85 ELSD and brief experience with CAD. CAD is more sensitive (about 2 to 5 times depending on analytes and conditions).
