HPLC 2011: Day 1
20 June — Budapest, Hungary: Welcome to the first day of coverage of HPLC 2011, which is being held at the Budapest Congress and World Trade Center in Hungary.
HPLC 2011 is a major highlight in the chromatography calendar and this year’s chairman Attila Felinger, from the Department of Analytical and Environmental Chemistry at the University of Pecs in Hungary, has gathered a stellar cast of separation scientists from industry and academia to reveal the latest developments in their fields.
The scientific programme will focus on innovative methods and technology in chromatography and includes eight plenary lectures, thirty keynote lectures and eighty-seven lectures, as well as tutorials, short courses, poster sessions and an exhibition from leading vendors in the chromatography sector.
These daily show guides from LCGC Europe and LCGC North America will keep you abreast of what is happening at HPLC 2011.
Sustainable Green Solvents in Microextraction: A Review of Recent Advancements
March 27th 2024Conventional sample preparation can be time- and resource-consuming, and a green analytical methodology can be a game-changer for scientists, in addition to facilitating selective and sensitive separations.
Transferring Methods to Compact and Portable HPLC
February 14th 2024The current trend in laboratory equipment design is the miniaturization of laboratory instruments. Smaller-scale HPLC instruments offer benefits that cannot be matched by analytical-scale equipment, especially in the areas of portability, reduced fluid volumes, and reduced operating costs. Yet, the miniaturization of laboratory equipment has brought with it a unique set of challenges, including transferring methods to compact LC. Capillary LC expands the use of LC to applications not currently done using conventional LC in a wide array of application areas, including pharmaceutical, food and beverage, petrochemical, environmental, and oil and gas. Greg Ward, Axcend’s CEO wrote, “Customers want an HPLC system with a small footprint, low flow rates and green chemistry.” Join his podcast where he shares method transfer in these application areas.
High-Throughput Analysis of Volatile Compounds in Air, Water, and Soil Using SIFT-MS (Apr 2024)
March 27th 2024This study demonstrates high-throughput analysis of BTEX compounds from several matrices (air, water and soil). Detection limits in the single-digit part-per-billion concentration range (by volume) are readily achievable within seconds using SIFT-MS, because sample analysis is achieved without chromatography, pre-concentration, or drying. We also present a calibration approach that enables speciation of ethylbenzene from the xylenes in real time.
