iPad application unveiled at HPLC conference
Waters launched its Apple iPad application at the recent HPLC conference that took place last month in Budapest, Hungary. The app will allow customers to choose the most appropriate sample plates, vials and filters at the touch of the screen.

Commenting on this move into mobile communication technology, Dr Mark Baynham, director, channel management at Waters, said, "Many of our customers are extending the use of mobile devices into their professional lives, including laboratory management. For those customers, we have approached the development of our iPad app with the same level of understanding and commitment to innovation that Waters brings to all product development. The initial app has been designed specifically for the iPad platform and sets the stage for future innovative tools designed for lab scientists."
Developed in collaboration with Roundarch, a leader in digital design and development for the world’s largest organizations, the architecture allows for future expansion and updates without needing to install a new version of the app.
The Waters iPad app is available for download at the iTunes App Store
Detangling the Complex Web of GC×GC Method Development to Support New Users
September 12th 2024The introduction of comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC×GC) to the sample screening toolbox has substantially increased the ability to comprehensively characterize complex mixtures. However, for many gas chromatography (GC) users, the thought of having to learn to develop methods on a new technology is daunting. Developing a basic GC×GC method for most (nonspecialized) applications can be accomplished in minimal time and effort given parameter suggestions and ranges to target analytes in a sample of interest. In this article, the authors work describe a simple workflow to develop a GC×GC method for a specific sample upon initial use, with the aim of decreasing the time to accomplish functional workflows for new users.
Modern HPLC Strategies: Improving Retention and Peak Shape for Basic Analytes
August 16th 2024In high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), it is common for bases and unreacted ionized silanols on silica-based columns to cause irreproducible retention, broad peaks, and peak tailing when working with basic analytes. David S. Bell, Lead Consultant at ASKkPrime LLC offers innovative HPLC strategies that can help mitigate such issues.
Two-Dimensional Supercritical Fluid Chromatography System Created with Multiple Heart-Cutting Modes
September 11th 2024Université d’Orleans and Chromisa Scientific scientists recently created a two-dimensional supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) system with multiple heart-cutting (MHC) modes.
