Subcritical water chromatography (SBWC) is seen as an increasingly enticing prospect to replace high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in industrial settings because of its low costs and environmental impact. Yu Yang of East Carolina University, in Greenville, North Carolina, USA, has conducted research into this process for two decades. He recently spoke to Lewis Botcherby of The Column about his work, why companies should consider SBWC, and its role in pharmaceutical analysis.

The literature on reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC) of proteins is reasonably well developed, but not taught in the college classroom much. Kevin Schug therefore wants to focus on a stoichiometric displacement model for reversed-phase LC of proteins and why it is particularly insightful from a practical perspective.
