Separation Sciences in the Czech Republic: From Historical Foundations to Recent Advances
This review explores lesser-known Czech contributions to chromatography and electrophoresis and highlights recent advances in separation science and instrumentation.
Why Capillary LC Is the Future of LC-MS Sensitivity
Samuel Foster discusses capillary LC, from dramatic solvent savings and enhanced ESI-MS sensitivity to extra-column effects, method translation, radiopharmaceuticals, and the future of miniaturized HPLC.
Injecting water into a GC system can cause backflash, poor vaporization, detector issues, and stationary phase degradation. Learn how to minimize these risks with the right column and injection setup.
Scientists reveal when chemical bonds form in molecular collisions
Scientists have mapped the “cone of reaction” for a single molecule, revealing how precise molecular orientation determines whether a chemical bond forms during a collision.
This week we bring you posters by Agilent Technologies / ASMS, Thermo Fisher Scientific / ASMS and Shimadzu / ASMS and application note by Waters Corporation!
