Most HPLC columns are packed with silica onto which some form of hydrophobic ligand is bonded – these columns form the vast majority of those used for modern reversed phase HPLC.

The Column spoke to Evelien Dejaegere from Waters Corporation about the method life cycle management approach and its importance in the pharmaceutical sector.

Researchers have developed an alternative method to reduce interferences for the analysis of N-nitrosamines using GC coupled to HR-QTOF-MS.

Eurofins | IPROMA has signed a collaboration agreement with Markes International to facilitate the development and validation of a method for the quantification of micro- and nano‑plastics up to 0.3 µm in size.

Following a checklist can help to diagnose changes in chromatographic selectivity, which can be among the most difficult to isolate and correct.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has received the CE mark in the European Union for its diagnostic test to detect nucleic acid from SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19.

Using GC–MS and light microscopy, researchers have investigated the dental calculus of a roman woman with coeliac disease and found she came into contact with gluten-rich cereals that would have been deleterious to her, and would likely have contributed to her premature death.

Eurofins Technologies, a provider of diagnostic technologies in the field of immunoassays and molecular detection methods, has launched GeneScan VIRSeek SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR, an integrated solution that includes RNA extraction and tests kits based on real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain-reaction (PCR) for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 in swabs of environmental surfaces.

A key component for data integrity is having accurate and precise analytical procedures that are validated for intended use. Changes in the way that procedures are specified, developed, validated, and operated are coming. Here is what you need to know.

When determining which sample preparation technique to use for your sample and analysis type, there are many factors to consider. To make this easier, LCGC has created step-by-step guidance for you to follow as you think through the options-in an easy-to-use flow-chart structure.

My initial inclination was to write about something other than the current status of life, given the threats of coronavirus. However, after a month extension to the shelter-in-place was ordered by the U.S. government this past weekend, and after various e-discussions with friends and colleagues throughout the world who are experiencing similar challenges, I felt I might have something to offer to make life easier.

This is the third in a series of articles exploring topics planned for the HPLC 2020 conference in San Diego, from June 20 to 25. Although COVID-19 is putting most conferences in doubt, we are proceeding with this article series, which not only provides a conference preview but also provides insight into hot topics in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has identified the U.S. chemical industry and its workers as Essential Critical Infrastructure, an industry sector that is critical to public health and safety, economic, and national security.

GC carrier gas selection and settings can have a major effect on column performance and speed of analysis. This eBook explores some important considerations for working with carrier gas to optimize gas chromatography performance.

This is the second in a series of articles exploring topics that will be addressed at the HPLC 2020 conference in San Diego, from June 20 to 25.

Researchers have developed a new liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) method for the simultaneous chromatographic separation and detection of anticoccidials, which are used as an agricultural animal treatment, in environmental waters.
