Yuefei Ruan from the City University of Hong Kong, China, discusses the relevance of target analysis, extractable organofluorine analysis, high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) screening, and the oxidative conversion of precursors for the analysis of PFAS in aquatic environments.
This month we interview David Steiner, head of product development at LVA GmbH–Lebensmittelversuchsanstalt in Klosterneuburg, Austria about his work developing liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) multiclass methods for classification of feedstuff, including replication of model complex feedstuffs in the analytical laboratory.
Researchers at Enveda Biosciences are transforming nature into new medicines with their artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled industrial-scale drug discovery platform incorporating tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS).
Adopted 35 years ago, the Montreal Protocol is an international treaty designed to protect the ozone layer. It addresses ozone depletion caused by industrial chemicals and remains a landmark environmental agreement in the phasing out and ban of the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances (ODSs).
The 26th Norwegian Symposium on Chromatography was held 21–23 January 2024. The symposium has strong traditions in the Norwegian separation science community, serving as a forum for excellent scientific talks, networking, and social events.
EuSP2024 | GSAC2024 — The 3rd European Sample Preparation Conference and 2nd Green and Sustainable Analytical Chemistry Conference will both take place from 15–18 September 2024 in Chania, Crete, Greece.
A study has used gas chromatography coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer to build an electron ionization mass spectra database of more than 250 chemicals classified as either volatile or semi-volatile compounds. An additional, confirmatory layer of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis was subsequently performed.
Element Materials Technology introduced its Rapid Response Pharmaceutical Testing Service, providing expedited testing and focusing on various requirements including active ingredients and final drug products, extractables and leachables, degradation production, and elemental impurities.
A study has proposed targeted methods, developed using gas chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry, to measure human plasma protein binding and hepatocyte clearance in 73 per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS.
Microextraction using sustainable green solvents, followed by mass spectrometric analysis, comprise a combined approach that is still in its infancy.
Joycelyn Tan, a PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge, is the 2024 recipient of the Darlene Solomon Award, co-sponsored by Females in Mass Spectrometry and Agilent Technologies, and created to provide support for up-and-coming women scientists.
This installment of Tips & Tricks deals with pressure monitoring for GPC/SEC systems and gives hints for efficient troubleshooting to solve issues that are identified in the laboratory.
Aspiring separation scientists should prepare for career development as well as they prepare their mobile phases. Can the 70:20:10 career development plan work for you?
