When can we use completely aqueous eluents with reversed-phase stationary phases, and what happens if we make a mistake?

In this excerpt from LCGC’s e-learning platform, CHROMacademy.com, recovery problems in solid-phase extraction (SPE) are discussed.

The Column spoke to Robert Shaw, Steph Turnbull, and Sophie Bailes from AstraZeneca about their work in quality by design (QbD) in the pharmaceutical industry.

Calling all innovators (or anyone seeking to justify a new instrument purchase)!

A newly developed HILIC stationary phase containing modified diol groups on a polymer-based particle has offered renewed hope of an alternative to IP-reversed-phase LC.

Adding an inline mixer between the sample injector and column in a liquid chromatography (LC) system can be an effective way to resolve problems with peak shape caused by the sample diluent.

Tomas Cajka previews his keynote lecture at HPLC 2019, where he will introduce an LC−MS workflow (LIpids, Metabolites and eXposome compounds [LIMeX]) for simultaneous extraction of complex lipids, polar metabolites, and exposome compounds that combines LC–MS targeted and untargeted analysis.

Davy Guillarme previews his presentation at HPLC 2019 highlighting the new trends in LC×LC applied for biopharmaceutical characterization, including the hyphenation with high‑resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) and ion mobility spectrometry (IMS).

Rawi Ramautar discusses capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry for metabolomics and previews the topic for HPLC 2019.

Barbara Bojko previews the topic of solid-phase micoextraction for clinical and pharmaceutical research.

The advantages and limitations of several recently introduced mathematical procedures for enhancing peak resolution in liquid chromatography (LC) are described. Despite advanced separation technologies and extensive knowledge in method development, peak overlap is still commonly observed. This article gives a brief overview of the advantages and limitations of recently introduced mathematical procedures for enhancing resolution.

Gaining a solid understanding of how HPLC instrumentation works will help you achieve success in the analytical laboratory. This four-part series is here to guide you, starting with pumps.

What are the roles and responsibilities of quality assurance staff for ensuring data integrity in an organization?

Coupling CE with MS presents some challenges. Here, we discuss the advantages of CE–MS over LC–MS, and the parameters that are important to obtain a stable CE–MS profile.

Improved practices in chemistry selection and sample processing may resolve recovery issues related to target analytes or internal standards.

Unlike reversed-phase liquid chromatography, SFC lacks a universal stationary phase. Thus, it is important to re-evaluate the default column screening library used with SFC. In this study, three uncommon achiral SFC columns were investigated and compared to three popular stationary phases.
