Flash chromatography is a purification technique that is designed for rapid separation by using air pressure as opposed to slow and inefficient gravityfed chromatography. It differs from the conventional column technique by using slightly smaller silica gel particles and pressurized gas at 50–200 psi.

Over the past 20 years, the use of LC– MS instruments has become increasingly
important to many researchers. The performance of LC–MS instruments has continued to advance, reaching higher levels of sensitivity and increased resolution.


Ultrahigh-Pressure LC–MS Driving Proteomics and Metabolomics Research

Cannabis products are frequently tested for potency, pesticides and fungicides, solvent residues, heavy metals, microbes, foreign organic matter, and moisture. The most common techniques used for these tests are high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC), LC or GC with mass spectrometry detection, and inductively coupled plasma–MS.

The global economy is currently going through something it has not experienced in nearly a decade. The major geographic segments are performing well with overall production increasing. This is typically a strong indicator that the demand for chromatography products in the chemical and petrochemicals industry will also perform well.
