Paul Haddad and Erik L. Regalado are the winners of the 14th annual LCGC Lifetime Achievement and Emerging Leader in Chromatography Awards, respectively. We review their achievements.

In this installment of The LCGC Blog, Michelle L. Kovarik shows how we can each take steps to ensure the diverse talent in our separation science community is fully represented and celebrated in industry awards.

Utilizing 3D-printing technology, researchers have produced a metal column for use in micro-gas chromatography (GC) and examined its properties and ability to perform gas separations.

Professor Anurag Rathore, a scientist at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in Delhi, is the first researcher based in India to receive this award.

LCGC is seeking contributed manuscripts for an April 2021 supplement on food and beverage analysis.

A recent study has applied retention modelling and QbD practices to the process of reverse‑phase LC method development for a NCE.

Agilent Technologies has announced that their collaboration with SGS has resulted in a new GC-TQ method.

The 2020 Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) Award for Outstanding Achievements in Separation Science will be presented to Joe Foley on November 18.

The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) Award for Outstanding Achievements in the Fields of Analytical Chemistry will be presented to Susan Olesik at this year’s virtual conference.

Researchers from Baylor University have identified the toxins responsible for fish deaths in Prymnesium parvum algal blooms using liquid chromatography–high resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS).

Shimadzu Corporation have opened a new branch in Greater Copenhagen, the country’s economic and scientific heartland.

The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) 2020 Young Investigator Award will be presented to Dajana Vuckovic on Monday, November 16.

Data systems are important in ensuring data integrity, but what should laboratories do beyond looking at data systems—with respect to people, processes, and culture? To understand more, we spoke to Mark Newton, of Heartland QA, in Lebanon, Indiana, in a podcast interview.

In static headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) sample diluents and sample matrices can affect analytical method sensitivity, accuracy, and interferences. By applying the rules revealed by this study, these problems can be avoided.

An analysis method for influenza virus particles has been developed using SEC which provides complimentary biopharmaceutical data for use during vaccine production and approval.

Researchers have developed a rapid and sensitive technique for the speciation analysis of complexes of nickel, lead, cobalt, iron, and calcium, as well as two aminopolycarboxylate chelator variants, EDTA and EDDS.

There’s a lot of interest in moving data to the cloud for security, centralization, and collaboration. Doing so, however, has implications for data integrity and audits. To understand more, we spoke to Monica Cahilly, the president and founder of Green Mountain Quality Assurance, in a podcast interview. Cahilly has more than 25 years of consulting experience, with specialized interest and enthusiasm for data integrity assurance and data governance. A short excerpt of that interview is presented here.

When we are focused on resolving a particular problem, it can be easy to lose sight of important steps in troubleshooting problems with liquid chromatography (LC) instruments. Taking a systematic and disciplined approach to troubleshooting can improve both the efficiency and effectiveness of our troubleshooting efforts.

The 2020 Eastern Analytical Symposium has gone virtual for 2020, and although we will miss the camaraderie of face to face interaction, the theme of this year’s conference “Analytical Science: Cornerstone of Innovation” indicates the strength of the separation sciences and the talks that you will not want to miss.
