There are three important habits and practices that can improve the effectiveness and efficiency of any troubleshooter.

We explore advancements in silica particles for liquid chromatography, focusing on the shift toward improved monodispersity and its impact on chromatographic parameters, efficiency, backpressure, and sensitivity in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

A recent sample preparation survey explored the critical role of sample preparation in gas chromatographic analysis.

The author describes the benefits of using high-capacity sorptive extraction and statistical analysis to detect authenticity markers and combat food fraud in honey samples.

Extraction technology is a rapidly growing sect in separation science, and ExTech remains the largest conference dedicated to discussing and sharing research done in this field.

A collaborative multi-analyte method developed utilizes HPLC and UHPLC to analyze more than 70 active ingredients. This method offers a validated approach for determining technical AI alongside linearity, precision, accuracy, and specificity tests for seven active ingredients.

The authors explore computer-aided workflows and machine learning, aimed at optimizing LC parameters, focusing on kinetic and thermodynamic aspects, and proposes closed-loop optimization strategies.
