Event Overview:
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from refineries, chemical plants, and other industrial sources must be closely monitored and limited, as they have significant impact on both the environment and human health. Subsets of approximately 100 of these VOCs are measured via EPA methods such as TO-14A and TO-15. While mass spectrometry or a combination of other non-specific detectors can be used to perform these methods, they all suffer from various drawbacks including compound identification, sensitivity, and ease of use. A new approach to VOC analysis utilizing GC-LUMA brings a selective, sensitive, and simple alternative to currently used setups.

Using Chromatography to Study Microplastics in Food: An Interview with Jose Bernal
December 16th 2024LCGC International sat down with Jose Bernal to discuss his latest research in using pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (Py-GC–MS) and other chromatographic techniques in studying microplastics in food analysis.
Overcoming Common Challenges to Determine Residual Impurities Using IC in APIs with Limited Water
December 10th 2024Organic solvents are generally not compatible with ion chromatography (IC) systems. The approach presented here assists the use of organic solvents for sample preparation and provides a mechanism for the removal of the organic solvents from the chromatographic flow path.
