Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, California) announced its support of prostate cancer research by the University of Michigan?s (Ann Arbor) Center for Translational Pathology through a grant of instruments and funding.
Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, California) announced its support of prostate cancer research by the University of Michigan’s (Ann Arbor) Center for Translational Pathology through a grant of instruments and funding. The goal is to accelerate research to defeat the disease using a multidisciplinary systems biology approach. The company is contributing a 1200 Series liquid chromatography (LC) system to be used to separate metabolites from human plasma as well as a 1200 Series Rapid Resolution LC system coupled to a model 6530 Accurate Mass quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer for the identification of those metabolites.
Reversed-Phases for LC Deliberately Doped with Positive Charge: Tips and Tricks for Effective Use
May 13th 2025In this month's edition of LC Troubleshooting, Dwight Stoll and his fellow researchers discuss both the benefits (improved peak shape/loading) and challenges (excessive interaction) associated with charge-doped reversed-phase (RP) columns for both analytical and preparative separations.
Investigating 3D-Printable Stationary Phases in Liquid Chromatography
May 7th 20253D printing technology has potential in chromatography, but a major challenge is developing materials with both high porosity and robust mechanical properties. Recently, scientists compared the separation performances of eight different 3D printable stationary phases.
Characterizing Polyamides Using Reversed-Phase Liquid Chromatography
May 5th 2025Polyamides can be difficult to characterize, despite their use in various aspects of everyday life. Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam researchers hoped to address this using a reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC)-based approach.
New Method Explored for the Detection of CECs in Crops Irrigated with Contaminated Water
April 30th 2025This new study presents a validated QuEChERS–LC-MS/MS method for detecting eight persistent, mobile, and toxic substances in escarole, tomatoes, and tomato leaves irrigated with contaminated water.
