The 3rd African Liquid Chromatography Workshop was held on 6–10 October 2014 in Nairobi, Kenya, at the ChromAfrica Training Centre. The workshop featured five days of lectures and laboratory practicals on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method development, column selection, and sample preparation. Merlin Bicking of ACCTA in Minnesota, USA, delivered training to 10 students from both government and private laboratories. Columns were supplied by Supelco and Agilent Technologies for use in the demonstrations. On-line CHROMacademy sections on sample preparation and solid-phase extraction (SPE) were an important part of the training.
