A Wednesday morning session titled "Surface Properties, Interactions and Retention Selectivity" will be held in Ballroom B starting at 10:30 a.m. The Session Chairs will be Georges Guiochon of the University of Tennessee (Knoxville, Tennessee) and Wolfgang Lindner of the University of Vienna (Vienna, Austria).
A Wednesday morning session titled “Surface Properties, Interactions and Retention Selectivity” will be held in Ballroom B starting at 10:30 a.m. The Session Chairs will be Georges Guiochon of the University of Tennessee (Knoxville, Tennessee) and Wolfgang Lindner of the University of Vienna (Vienna, Austria).
The first presentation in the session will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will be given by Marja-Liisa Riekkola of the University of Helsinki (Helsinki, Finland). The title of the presentation is “Ingenious Electrochromatographic Approaches for Surface Interaction Studies.”
Next, a talk titled “Structural Variation of Solid Core and Thickness of Porous Shell of 1.7 µm Core-Shell Silica Particles on Chromatographic Performance” will be presented by Csaba Horváth Young Scientist Award Nominee Jesse O. Omamogho.
Omamogho’s discussion of the core-shell LC column particles will be followed by a presentation by Charles A. Lucy of the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) titled “Insights into Retention and Selectivity in Ion Chromatographic Separations of Inorganic Anions.”
The final presentation in this Wednesday morning session will be given by Uwe Dieter Neue of Waters Corporation (Milford, Massachusetts). Neue’s talk is titled “Selectivity in Reversed-Phase Separations.”
Characterizing Plant Polysaccharides Using Size-Exclusion Chromatography
April 4th 2025With green chemistry becoming more standardized, Leena Pitkänen of Aalto University analyzed how useful size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) and asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) could be in characterizing plant polysaccharides.
Investigating the Protective Effects of Frankincense Oil on Wound Healing with GC–MS
April 2nd 2025Frankincense essential oil is known for its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and therapeutic properties. A recent study investigated the protective effects of the oil in an excision wound model in rats, focusing on oxidative stress reduction, inflammatory cytokine modulation, and caspase-3 regulation; chemical composition of the oil was analyzed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS).
