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: Chromatograms obtained using the conditions under which the ion suppression problem was originally discovered. The ion suppression trace is shown on the bottom. Column: 75 mm x 4.6 mm ODS-3; mobile-phase A: 0.05% heptafluorobutyric acid in water; mobile-phase B: 0.05% heptafluorobutyric acid in acetonitrile; gradient: 5â30% B in 4 min. Peaks: 1 = metabolite, 2 = internal standard, 3 = parent drug.
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.

Identifying and Rectifying the Misuse of Retention Indices in GC
December 10th 2024LCGC International spoke to Phil Marriott and Humberto Bizzo about a recent paper they published identifying the incorrect use of retention indices in gas chromatography and how this problem can be rectified in practice.
Overcoming Common Challenges to Determine Residual Impurities Using IC in APIs with Limited Water
December 10th 2024Organic solvents are generally not compatible with ion chromatography (IC) systems. The approach presented here assists the use of organic solvents for sample preparation and provides a mechanism for the removal of the organic solvents from the chromatographic flow path.
