Determination of Phthalate-Varian Application Note

Owlstone Nanotech and Agilent Technologies have announced a phase one agreement to develop Owlstone's field-asymmetric ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) filter as a front-end separation module for Agilent's Accurate Mass time-of-flight mass spectrometers (TOF-MS).

Sugar alcohols require unique methods for analysis by HPLC due to their high polarity and lack of a UV-absorbing chromophore. USP methods for these separations take advantage of ion exclusion HPLC techniques. In this note, several different separations of sugar alcohols were performed us­ing ion exclusion Rezex RPM and RCU HPLC columns.

PerkinElmer and LEAP Technologies have entered into a resale agreement for ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technology.

Chromatographic Fingerprinting of Flos Chrysanthema Indici-Dionex Application Note

Ion mobility spectrometry has found commercial success as a homeland security tool in the field detection of explosives, drugs, and chemical weapons. Other common uses for the technique have been in the pharmaceutical industry for cleaning validation and in the analysis of biological material. The applications to be discussed in this Wednesday morning session include the combination of IMS with MS, the characterization of carbohydrate?protein binding, protein and peptide analysis, IMS-MS analyses with elevated electric field intensities, and neutral ion pair evaporation from ionic liquid nanodroplets
