A snapshot of key trends and developments in GC/GC–MS according to selected panellists from the chromatography sector.

The importance of accurate analysis methods for EtO and 2-CE in food is essential and the demand for robust methods that are able to deliver high sample throughput with minimal instrumental downtime is high.

The first part of a review of the recent Chromatographic Society (ChromSoc) spring symposium meeting focusing on small molecule analysis.

The 33rd International Symposium on Chromatography (ISC 2022) will be held from 18–22 September 2022 in Budapest. Read on to find out what attendees can look forward to.

This month we interview Natalia Manousi, from the Laboratory of Analytical Chemistry at the Department of Chemistry of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Thessaloniki, Greece, about her work in the development and application of novel sample preparation techniques.

This article expands beyond the basic POPs analysis by GC to provide the top 10 aspects that need to be considered to obtain reliable chromatographic results.

This instalment of Tips & Tricks discusses the effect of column order on separation efficiency.

We continue our “Critical Evaluation” series with a consideration of liquid chromatography (LC) methods that use mass spectrometric detection.

Miniaturized LC systems offer the analyst the scope to use less organic solvent and consume less energy. As the demand for green chemistry techniques and methods continues to grow there is demand for smaller and more portable liquid chromatography (LC) analytical instruments.

The Berlin-based manufacturer of high-tech laboratory measuring instruments, Knauer, celebrated the company’s 60th anniversary in July.
