This application note from SCION Instruments delves into the meticulous screening of impurities in plant protection products using GC-FID, with GC-MS for confirmation. It emphasizes the necessity of identifying and quantifying impurities to comply with regulatory standards in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, and agriculture. The study specifically examines eugenol, showcasing how to determine significant impurities for regulatory submission. The approach integrates GC-MS and analytical standards, ensuring precise impurity identification and quantification critical for product approval.
Liquid chromatography–ion mobility spectrometry–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–IMS–HRMS) shows elephant seal pups carry more PFAS than their mothers do.
This week's Chromatography Online highlights include olive waste antioxidant recovery, food and tea analysis, EV isolation, mRNA vaccine purification, perfusion chromatography for oligonucleotides, mass spectrometry in teaching and career advice from “Women in Chromatography.”
Kinjal Bhatt and Ina Varfaj call AI a chromatography equalizer only if training and access keep pace, framing the risk as implementation, not technology.
Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) reveal lasting brain cholesterol loss after myelin damage.
Kinjal Bhatt would expose early-career scientists to the field sooner, while Ina Varfaj says a broken chromatography column taught her failure is normal.
