Wednesday Morning Session: Supercritical Fluid Chromatography – I
This parallel session is co-chaired by Elia Psilakis of the Technical University of Crete in Greece and Katerina Plachka of Charles University in the Czech Republic and includes four talks. It will be held from 9:00 to 10:30 am in Ballroom D.
The first session, a keynote lecture, starts at 9:00 am. It is titled “Solvent Interactions in Supercritical Fluid Chromatography,” and will be led by Attila Felinger of the University of Pecs, in Hungary.
Next, at 9:30 am, a keynote lecture titled “Problems of Stationary Phases in SFC” will be hosted by Lucie Novakova of the Department of Analytical Chemistry, at Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové,in the Czech Republic.
Following, at 10:00 am, will be a keynote lecture given by Gerard Rosse of Arrival Discovery LLC titled “CO2 Separation (SFC): An Eco-Sustainable Chromatography Technique to Produce Safe and Compliant Ingredients for Pharma and Hemp Industries.”
The final session, led by Chun-Kai Chang of the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, is titled “Exploration of the Retention Mechanism in Supercritical Fluid Chromatography by Molecular Simulations.”
Extraction of 40 PFAS Compounds from Soil and Tissue
December 6th 2024PFAS have been shown to cause health issues in humans, which means monitoring environmental solid samples, such as soil and tissue, is critical. This application note details the extraction of 40 spiked PFAS compounds from soil and tissue following EPA Method 1633. The automated extraction was less than 10 minutes per sample and yielded acceptable recoveries and RSDs without carryover in the system. The EDGE PFAS is an ideal option for laboratories that want to automate their PFAS extractions of solid samples.
