Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFC)

Scientists from the Zheijiang University of Technology published a review article on the extraction of terpenoids from essential oils to determine what techniques can optimize enantiomer separation.

In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Kevin Schug, PhD, a full professor of chemistry at the University of Texas at Arlington, discusses his laboratory’s group work in environmental monitoring around water and soil quality near oil and gas extraction, using techniques such as liquid chromatography (LC), gas chromatography (GC), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), and coupling these techniques with mass spectrometry (MS).

Chromatographic techniques such as supercritical fluid chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography was used to conduct chiral separation for metconazole, which is used as a fungicide to treat wheat diseases.

Wolfgang F. Lindner and Martina Catani are the winners of the 17th annual LCGC Lifetime Achievement and Emerging Leader in Chromatography Awards, respectively. These awards honor the work of talented separation scientists at different stages in their career. The award winners will be honored in March in an oral symposium at the Pittcon 2024 conference in San Diego, California.

The research conducted by Jing Dong and team unveils a pioneering approach that not only unravels the complexities of Valeriana jatamansi, but also showcases the potential of advanced analytical techniques in comprehensively studying natural compounds.

ExTech is the largest conference dedicated to extraction technology, a field within separation chemistry that has seen remarkable growth over the past three decades.

The 25th edition of the International Symposium on Advances in Extraction Technologies (ExTech) will be held in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain) from 18–21 July 2023. Here’s a glimpse of what attendees can look forward to.

We are investigating fundamental relationships between the structures of molecules and their interaction with different materials, in the context of on-line supercritical fluid extraction–supercritical fluid chromatography (SFE–SFC).

We look at five modern treatments of chromatographic sample extraction, explaining their initial conception and development to shed light on their current roles as analytical tools.
