Methanol is a polar-protic solvent, whereas acetonitrile is a polar-aprotic solvent and possesses a stronger dipole moment. This means that the organic modifier used in the mobile phase can have a powerful effect on chromatographic selectivity
Methanol can be used as a mobile phase in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Methanol (MeOH) has been used in the wholemount immunofluorescence studies of embryonic tissues.
