This article will review historical bonding techniques still in use for manufacturing high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) stationary phases today, and also examine some emerging technologies that may be able to tackle unmet needs in novel platforms and phase construction.

The traditional bonding techniques used to manufacture silica-particle-based HPLC stationary phases provide many benefits, but can emerging technologies tackle unmet needs? We assess current approaches and the potential for improvements.

Our annual review of new liquid chromatography (LC) columns and accessories, introduced at Pittcon and other events.

The “State-of-the-Art in Capillary Liquid Chromatography” panel discussion at the 43rd International Symposium on Capillary Chromatography (ISCC 2019) in Fort Worth, Texas, USA, was a thoughtful dialogue on current challenges and potential future directions in the field. The session included a general overview of the current state of the field, key drawbacks preventing widespread use of capillary liquid chromatography (LC) columns, and how these challenges might be overcome. In this article, we highlight some of the common themes that were discussed as part of this panel.
