New research characterizes walnut milk residue according to its phenolic content and antioxidant and cytotoxic potential using ultra-performance liquid chromatography–electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-MS/MS).

Shihezi University scientists recently developed a new imprinted structure to separate acteoside (ACT) from other substances within Cistance tubulosa, or “desert ginseng.”

A recent study aimed to directly compare the changes in serum metabolites among very low birth-rate (VLBW) infants following the administration of the soybean oil-based lipid emulsion and soybean oil, medium-chain triglycerides, olive oil, and fish oil (SMOF) lipid emulsion using untargeted metabolomics techniques.

At the Recent Advances in Food Analysis (RAFA) conference in 2024, LCGC International sat down with Stefan van Leuwen of Wageningen Food Safety Research to discuss his research, which addresses emerging challenges in circular food production, focusing on the risks posed by pollutants when waste and by-products are repurposed in food systems.

At ISC 2024 in Liverpool, United Kingdom, LCGC International interviewed Kelly Zhang of Genentech about her work analyzing new drug modalities, such as mRNA, oligonucleotides, peptides, and cell and gene therapies.

Harbin University of Commerce and Northeast Forestry University scientists led efforts to create new means of analyzing components in traditional Chinese medicine.

Jiangsu Police Institute scientists recently created a solid-phase microextraction (SPME)-based method for determining amphetamine-type stimulants.

A recent joint study between the University of Ferra and YMC ChromaCon led an effort to a new approach to more efficiently purify oligonucleotides.

Differences in serum metabolites of sheep infected with Echinococcus granulosus were analyzed using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) separation with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) detection, providing a basis for the early diagnosis and pathogenetic study of cystic echinococcosis (CE) in intermediate hosts at the metabolomics level.

University of Oslo scientists combined electromembrane extraction (EME) and flow injection-MS/MS (FI–MS/MS) to determine polar endogeneous metabolites in human plasma.

University of Innsbruck scientists recently used ultrahigh-performance supercritical fluid chromatography to facilitate the determination of anthraquinone derivatives in alder buckthorn.

Shimadzu Corporation is celebrating 150 years since it was founded with a dedicated website and a collaboratively designed logo.

In forensic science, scientific testimony is routinely presented in court to juries who may have limited or no scientific background, putting law enforcement and defense personnel in the position of having to make rapid decisions in short timeframes based on findings of which they are not specialists. Katelynn Perrault Uptmor, Assistant Professor of Chemistry at William & Mary (Williamsburg, Virginia) believes that the introduction of new technologies into the framework of routine forensic analysis must therefore bridge the gap between introduction of new and novel analytical science and the communication of that science to a court of law, and that analytical chemistry research must be mindful of the need to fill this gap in promoting new technologies.
