Researchers have used gel filtration chromatography and fast protein liquid chromatography to analyze the genes and molecular mechanisms that allow mice to resist developing obesity.

Trimega Laboratories has opened a new lab in Manchester, UK that will be used to assist the government with its forensic toxicology workload in the wake of the closure of the Forensic Science Service.

In response to a recent discovery of dioxins in animal feed produced in Germany, Phenomenex has published a new method for the analysis of dioxins in animal feed and tissue using high-resolution gas chromatography with mass spec detection (HRGCMS).

In its simplest form the process of mass analysis in LC-MS involves the separation or filtration of analyte ions.

For this month's Chromatography Corner, we spoke to Kevin Schug of the University of Texas at Arlington. Schug addresses a few myths that surround electrospray ionization (ESI), including why "less is more" for successful separations.
