Leveraging an Enterprise Laboratory Informatics Platform to Maximize Scientific Data Advantage
September 9th 2024As data volumes and expectations for fast scientific discovery continue to increase, laboratory-based research organizations can no longer rely on a siloed approach to data management. To remain competitive, scientific organizations need to connect all their data, from discovery through manufacturing, in a unified informatics platform.
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.
