The 15th Desty Memorial Lecture for Innovation In Separation Science is set to take place on 6 October at the Royal Institution in London, UK. The lectures will be presented by leading separation scientists from major industrial companies and universities from around the world.
The first lecture, ‘Seeing the Unseen in Sample Preparation’, will be presented by Tony Edge from ThermoFisher and will be followed by Gillian Greenway from the University of Hull, who will ask the question ‘Will Minaturization and Separations fit the bill?’ Brett Paull from Dublin City University will then discuss monoliths before Keith Fadgen from Waters presents ‘Fractionation Strategies for Multidimensional Proteomic Separations’. Johan Roeraade from the Royal institute of Technology in Stockholm will then talk about his exploits in the gas phase and Milos Novotny from Indiana University will discuss his long journey from capillary gas chromatography to the world of glycomes and proteomes.

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.
