Researchers recently developed fluorinated solid phase microextraction (SPME) materials that improve the selective extraction and chromatographic detection of volatile per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from complex samples. LCGC International spoke to the authors of the paper resulting from this work.

A focus on using fluorinated ionic liquid stationary phases to analyze forever chemicals.

The 55th International Symposium on High Performance Liquid Phase Separations and Related Techniques (HPLC 2026) conference will take place from June 6–11, 2026, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Conference Chairs, Todd Maloney from Eli Lilly and Company and Jared Anderson from Iowa State University, highlight what the conference has to offer the chromatography community.

Our "Earth Day" coverage examines a study using fluorinated ionic liquid stationary phases to analyze forever chemicals.

The 55th International Symposium on High Performance Liquid Phase Separations and Related Techniques (HPLC 2026) conference will convene June 6–11, 2026, in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The recruitment of young, talented entrepreneurs within academia and industry is needed to tackle many of the challenges that exist today and that will emerge tomorrow.

Guest editor Jared L. Anderson introduces the LCGC supplement 'Advances in Sample Preparation'.

A U.S. government-sponsored report released last year puts a spotlight on critical concerns affecting the future of separation science.

The field of sample preparation is undergoing revolutionary change, largely governed by the need for miniaturization while maintaining high selectivity and high analyte enrichment. How up-to-date are you in the advances of sample preparation for chromatographic analysis?

In this extended special feature to celebrate the 30th anniversary edition of LCGC Europe, leading figures from the separation science community explore contemporary trends in separation science and identify possible future developments. We asked key opinion leaders in the field to discuss the current state of the art in sample preparation.

This short review covers the use of ionic liquids (ILs) and polymeric ionic liquids (PILs) in solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and dispersive microextraction (DLLME)

Ionic liquids have tunable selectivity for specific classes of analytes, giving them distinct advantages over organic solvents.
