What you need to know about gas chromatography columns, thin-layer chromatography plates, sample preparation products, as well as chromatography and sample preparation accessories (including small benchtop instruments) unveiled at Pittcon this year

A review of nomenclature and conventions used in comprehensive multidimensional chromatography. An update of the popular paper on this topic from 2003.

What do you do when an unexpected peak appears?

A review highlighting the recent development on flow-injection analysis (FIA)–mass spectrometry (MS) to bring more attention to this effort.

The work described here involved the investigation of intact plant stanyl fatty acid esters in an enriched commercial margarine using an online coupled Agilent 1220 Infinity LC-7890A GC system. The lipid extract was directly analyzed without prior purification steps. The LC fraction of plant stanyl esters was transferred online into the GC system using the solvent vent mode of the multimode inlet for solvent evaporation.
