John Hinshaw examines the anatomy of chromatographic peaks with attention to features that help determine the suitability of individual chromatographs for a specific analysis task.

The innovative and inspiring career of Barry Karger is described, including his pioneering work in bioanalysis.

There are many parameters that need to be considered when considering the use of hydrogen as a carrier, however, the benefits to chromatography and money saved make this a worthwhile exercise.

In any field, there are "misconceptions" or "myths" that arise and are perpetuated and passed on to the next generation. These myths are often driven by a lack of understanding of the real issues by practitioners. In the first of a two-part feature from Ron Majors, the top 10 high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column myths are presented and attempts are made to demystify them by offering some evidence that they are untrue. This part will feature myths 10 to six.

The Eastern Analytical Symposium (EAS) will be held this year from November 18 to 20, 2013, in Somerset, New Jersey. EAS is the second largest conference and exposition for laboratory science in the United States dedicated to the needs of analytical chemists and those in the allied sciences.

There are many parameters that need to be considered when considering the use of hydrogen as a carrier. Even so, the benefits to chromatography and money saving make this a worthwhile exercise.

Highlights of the column technology observed at the symposium

The latest applications for carbon nanotubes in chromatography and sample preparation are outlined.

A tribute to John Dolan, who is celebrating 30 years of writing the "LC Troubleshooting" column.

The application of gas chromatography (GC) combined with atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC–APCI-MS) and with supersonic molecular beam ionization mass spectrometry (GC–SMB-MS).
