An excerpt from LCGC's e-learning tutorial on HPLC methods at CHROMacademy.com

The 40th International Symposium on High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Related Techniques (HPLC2013-Hobart) will take place at the Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, from 18–21 November 2013.

This work describes a simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with mass spectrometry (MS) and ultraviolet (UV) detection for the analysis of mixtures of up to 32 pesticides.

A review of the trends at this year's symposium, including discussions of column technology, sample preparation, and detector usage.

How do you identify the cause of unstable retention times?

In this instalment, a way of utilizing HR-MS systems to characterize the structures of metabolites is introduced. This results in a general workflow for metabolism studies for drug discovery and development.
