The 2017 Chromatography Forum of the Delaware Valley Dal Nogare Award will be presented Monday morning at Pittcon 2017 to Professor Andras Guttman from the Csaba Horváth Laboratory of Bioseparation Sciences at the University of Debrecen in Hungary. The award will be presented by Mary Ellen McNally of EI DuPont de Nemours and Company.
The Chromatography Forum of the Delaware Valley chooses award recipients based on their contributions to the fundamental understanding of the chromatographic process. The award was established in honor of Stephen Dal Nogare, who died in 1968 after serving for six months as president of the Chromatography Forum. Guttman, who will be the 45th recipient of the award, is being recognized for his work with the theory and application of capillary electrophoresis separations of biomolecules such as glycoproteins and carbohydrates.
A session of oral presentations will follow the award presentation, with talks to be given by Guttman on analytical glycomics (the study of carbohydrate structures in biological systems), Barry L. Karger (Northeastern University) on the coupling of column separations to mass spectrometry for biotherapeutic applications, Frantisek Svec (The Molecular Foundry, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory) on the use of porous polymer-based monolithic columns, Milos V. Novotny (Indiana University) on capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection, and John R. Yates (The Scripps Research Institute) on studying the dynamics of protein networks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Best of the Week: Food Analysis, Chemical Migration in Plastic Bottles, STEM Researcher of the Year
December 20th 2024Top articles published this week include the launch of our “From Lab to Table” content series, a Q&A interview about using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS) to assess chemical hazards in plastic bottles, and a piece recognizing Brett Paull for being named Tasmanian STEM Researcher of the Year.
Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
Determination of Pharmaceuticals by Capillary HPLC-MS/MS (Dec 2024)
December 19th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of a compact portable capillary liquid chromatograph, the Axcend Focus LC, coupled to an Agilent Ultivo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical drugs in model aqueous samples.
