Let you quickly resolve and identify amino acid modifications in primary structure. These advanced biocolumns feature a 120A pore size with superficially porous 2.7 μm particles. They are specially tested with a challenging peptides mix to ensure reliable peptide mapping performance. In addition, AdvanceBio Peptide Mapping columns deliver exceptional resolution and speed for UHPLC, and excellent results for conventional HPLC too.
Where do all those extra peaks come from?
A new candidate biomarker of sugar and sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) intake has been proposed in a recent study published in the Journal of Nutrition.1 The study presents the carbon isotope ratio of alanine as a new biomarker for use in studies monitoring dietary sugar intake
J. Calvin Giddings provided one of the most practical discussions of the advantages of temperature programming in GC over isothermal analysis back in 1962. Here, Kevin Schug describes some of the salient points of that discussion and how they still apply today.
HPLC method development is an arduous process requiring considerable experience and scientific judgement. In this article, a roadmap for rapid HPLC method development using a three-pronged approach is presented.
Sigma-Aldrich (Missouri, USA) has announced that it has partnered with The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) (California, USA) to speed up access to discoveries by TSRI scientists to synthesize and analyze potential drugs. The partnership is the first to be formed between an academic institution and a reagents company.

Fava beans are a good source of polyphenols and are located in different parts of the plant. Phenolic compounds are thought to contribute to the overall antioxidant activities of plant foods. However, there is a lack of information on the phenolic composition of the seeds (beans) of some edible varieties. This has led a team of researchers based in Chile and Spain to use high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to identify the composition of a variety of immature fava seeds.
LCGC spoke to Ana Mar?a Garc?a Campa?a about the issues and the development of techniques associated with monitoring veterinary drug residues in foods for human consumption.
Fatty acids found in fish oils have been linked to health benefits, but declining fish stocks and possible presence of contaminants, such as PCBs, dioxins, and methylmercury, in fish oil have led to a search for new sources.
This month we take a look at the important topic of buffer choice for HPLC separations, how to the choose the correct buffer type and concentration as well as how to avoid variability in retention and selectivity.
A cell cycle clock consisting of four continuous stages governs cell division (and replication), with each stage controlled by a specific series of protein complexes. Cancer is characterized by the uncontrolled division of cells that have gained genetic mutations that allow them to overcome these controls, therefore resulting in their self-sufficiency.

Thermo Fisher Scientific (California, USA) has signed an agreement with Mitsui Knowledge Industry (MKI) (Tokyo, Japan) to be the exclusive distributor of MKI software for interpreting lipidomic research data.
Scientists from the University of Michigan Medical Centre (Michigan, USA) have demonstrated the viability of immuno-laser capture microdissection (iLCM) combined with nano liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS–MS) for the investigation of various subpopulations of cells within tissues.1 Cancerous tissue can contain different subpopulations of cells and knowing what is within a tumour can help to determine the appropriate course of treatment.
In an effort to implement the bipartisan Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) signed by President Obama, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced two proposed rules aimed at helping to ensure that imported food meets the same safety standards as food produced in the United States.
