LCGC is planning to publish the next issue of The Application Notebook special supplement in June. The publication will include vendor application notes that describe techniques and applications of all forms of chromatography and capillary electrophoresis that are of immediate interest to users in industry, academia, and government. If your company is interested in participating in these special supplements, contact:
Michael J. Tessalone, Group Publisher,
(732) 346-3016
Edward Fantuzzi, Associate Publisher,
(732) 346-3015
Stephanie Shaffer, East Coast Sales Manager,

It is important that each company's material fit within the allotted space. The editors cannot be responsible for substantial editing or handling of application notes that deviate from the following guidelines:
Each application note page should be no more than 500 words in length and should follow the following format.
All text will be published in accordance with LCGC's style to maintain uniformity throughout the book. It also will be checked for grammatical accuracy, although the content will not be edited. Text should be sent in electronic format, preferably using Microsoft Word.
Refer to photographs, line drawings, and graphs in the text using arabic numerals in consecutive order (Figure 1, etc.). Company logos, line drawings, graphs, and charts must be professionally rendered and submitted as .TIF or .EPS files with a minimum resolution of 300 dpi. Lines of chromatograms must be heavy enough to remain legible after reduction. Provide peak labels and identification. Provide figure captions as part of the text, each identified by its proper number and title. If you wish to submit a figure or chromatogram, please follow the format of the sample provided below.
Figure 1
Each table should be typed as part of the main text document. Refer to tables in the text by roman numerals in consecutive order (Table I, etc.). Every table and each column within the table must have an appropriate heading. Table number and title must be placed in a continuous heading above the data presented. If you wish to submit a table, please follow the format of the sample provided below.
Table I: Factor levels used in the designs
Literature citations must be indicated by arabic numerals in parentheses. List cited references at the end in the order of their appearance. Use the following format for references:

Inside the Laboratory: The Gionfriddo Group at the University at Buffalo
March 28th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Emanuela Gionfriddo, PhD, an associate professor of chemistry at the University at Buffalo, discusses her group’s current research endeavors, including using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to liquid chromatography (LC) and gas chromatography (GC) to further understand the chemical relationship between environmental exposure and disease and elucidate micropollutants fate in the environment and biological systems.
Transferring Methods to Compact and Portable HPLC
February 14th 2024The current trend in laboratory equipment design is the miniaturization of laboratory instruments. Smaller-scale HPLC instruments offer benefits that cannot be matched by analytical-scale equipment, especially in the areas of portability, reduced fluid volumes, and reduced operating costs. Yet, the miniaturization of laboratory equipment has brought with it a unique set of challenges, including transferring methods to compact LC. Capillary LC expands the use of LC to applications not currently done using conventional LC in a wide array of application areas, including pharmaceutical, food and beverage, petrochemical, environmental, and oil and gas. Greg Ward, Axcend’s CEO wrote, “Customers want an HPLC system with a small footprint, low flow rates and green chemistry.” Join his podcast where he shares method transfer in these application areas.
