Incognito investigates good pipetting practice and busts some of the urban myths behind what is probably the most widely used analytical tool.

Is it time to get back to the fundamentals of analytical chemistry? Incognito thinks the time is nigh.

Incognito explores the overwhelming array of sample preparation techniques (and acronyms).

Incognito asks what the COVID lockdowns have taught us, and discusses how the lessons learned can shape the future of working and work-spaces, post-pandemic.

Incognito leads us through the complex method used to determine related substances for hydroxychloroquine, exploring the practical implementation and critical evaluation of a less than optimum ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC) pharmacopeial method.
