Market Profile: Supercritical Fluid Chromatography

May 2, 2012

Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) makes use of a supercritical fluid, typically carbon dioxide (CO2), instead of an organic or aqueous solvent, to carry the sample through the chromatography column.

Curbing Food Contamination Crises

May 2, 2012

Janet Kelsey of The Column spoke to Joe Anacleto, Vice President of Applied Markets, AB Sciex, and Sky Countryman, Manager, Applied Markets Research Team, Phenomenex, about the impact their companies? joint collaboration project will have on the food safety testing market.

Back-tracing Poultry Meat Chain Exposure to Rapidly Metabolized Pollutants Using Volatile Compound Metabolic Signatures in Liver Tissues

May 2, 2012

It is well established that food-producing animals are exposed to toxic micropollutants via environment and feeds, and that micropollutants entering the animals are transferred to edible tissues, thus representing a chemical human health hazard.

Control of Antibiotics by Micellar Liquid Chromatography in Food Samples

May 2, 2012

Veterinary drugs have become an integral part of livestock production and play an important role in animal welfare maintenance, mainly for preventing disease, curing infection, controlling the risk of disease transmission to humans and for increasing the productive capacity of animals.

Strategies for Rapid Chiral HPLC Method Development for Pharmaceutical Analysis

April 19, 2012

Automated column and mobile phase screening is the current trend in the pharmaceutical industry to develop chiral methods. This study presents comprehensive strategies for automated rapid chiral HPLC method development including normal-phase, reversed-phase and polar organic phase separation modes.

Ultra-High Resolution Chromatography Using 500 mm UHPLC Columns for Detection Of Hidden Sample Components

April 19, 2012

LC method development for new drug candidates or screening methods for new active structures in botanicals present the same type of challenges: How do I know that I have separated all main components, as well as important, sometimes hidden, impurities? Is my resolution good enough? Am I missing small, co-eluting peaks?

Know Your Analyte...

April 19, 2012

Ask yourself a simple question. Do you know the structure or any of the physical properties of the analyte(s) from your most recent analysis? If the answer is yes, award yourself a self-congratulatory point. If no, why on earth not?

High Throughput Microchromatography

April 19, 2012

The growing importance of biotherapeutics to the pharmaceutical industry has created an increasing demand for protein analysis techniques with high precision, high sensitivity and high throughput. These techniques are used throughout the development process, starting with the discovery phase and continuing into lead optimization and characterization, preclinical and clinical trials (for both the biotherapeutic itself and related protein biomarkers) and manufacturing process development and control.

Using Multiple Analytical Techniques in Non-Targeted Analysis of Food Products

April 12, 2012

Traditional approaches for measuring food components are based on a ?target list? approach, whereby specific methodologies are developed for individual or related compounds. Such methods are well-suited for routine monitoring but can fail to detect emerging contamination events or to identify new prospects for product development.
