LC–MS

Latest News


This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.

Ardiana Kajtazi discusses her research identifying organic micropollutants in water using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS). She highlights the standardized filtration approach her team has developed based on intersection principles, utilizing retention indices from two reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) columns.
