Particularly in the pharmaceutical industry, drug purity isn’t just a goal – it’s essential for achieving safety, stability and efficacy. However, purification is easier said than done, especially with challenging molecules like DNA and RNA “oligonucleotides,” due in large part to their diversity and the range of impurities that can be generated during production. Enter DAVISIL® chromatographic silica, with a wide range of pore diameters and particle sizes to meet your specific application, performance and sustainability requirements. Before you choose the chromatography resin for your next purification application, take a look at these 5 considerations.
In this seventh part of " Conversations with Michael Dong," a series on fundamentals of HPLC in pharmaceutical analysis, LCGC International’s "Perspectives in HPLC" column editor explains why 2.1-mm i.d. columns are less preferred for pharmaceutical quality control.
Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography–quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC–QTOF-MS) shows how soaking and cooking break down soybean fats.
Nicolai Zederkopff explores chromatography’s role to help implement the maximum tolerable level (MTL) framework for food adulteration to translate analytical results into compliance decisions.
Franz Berthiller (BOKU University, Austria) discusses a multilaboratory study that used retention index markers to align mycotoxin liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) data.
A QuEChERS/ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) method tracks 23 plant toxins in cereals and spices. Michele Suman discusses the method with LCGC International.
