Incognito draws similarities between advances in car technology and HPLC systems. Better end products have come at the cost of knowledge about how it actually works and can be maintained.
Incognito draws some similarities about how the advances in car technology have mirrored those in HPLC systems. Whilst the end products may look better, perform better and be more reliable than previous ones this progress is at the loss in knowledge about how the car or instrument actually works and how it can be maintained.
Reversed-Phases for LC Deliberately Doped with Positive Charge: Tips and Tricks for Effective Use
May 13th 2025In this month's edition of LC Troubleshooting, Dwight Stoll and his fellow researchers discuss both the benefits (improved peak shape/loading) and challenges (excessive interaction) associated with charge-doped reversed-phase (RP) columns for both analytical and preparative separations.
Investigating 3D-Printable Stationary Phases in Liquid Chromatography
May 7th 20253D printing technology has potential in chromatography, but a major challenge is developing materials with both high porosity and robust mechanical properties. Recently, scientists compared the separation performances of eight different 3D printable stationary phases.
