Dionex has received a pair of awards, the Frost & Sullivan 2010 Best Practices Award for Global Process Chromatograph New Product Innovation, and the NorthFace Scoreboard Award from the Omega Management Group in recognition of world class customer service.
Dionex has received a pair of awards, the Frost & Sullivan 2010 Best Practices Award for Global Process Chromatograph New Product Innovation, and the NorthFace Scoreboard Award from the Omega Management Group in recognition of world class customer service.
The Best Practices Award was for the company’s process analytical platform, which the company reports is used worldwide to provide more timely analysis results by moving liquid chromatography-based measurements on-line. This is reported to result in reduced reporting delays, improved process throughput and efficiency, reduced product variability and reduced downtime. According to the company, the modular design enables on-line IC or HPLC to be applied from the process R&D lab bench to the factory floor.
“Dionex is honoured to be recognized by Frost & Sullivan,” said Rick Cooley, the market development manager for Process Analytics.
The customer service award is presented annually to companies who, as rated by their own customers, achieved excellence in customer satisfaction during the prior calendar year. Dionex is among 25 businesses that qualified to receive the award from a pool of 58 companies worldwide. The company is also among only five companies that are 7-time recipients of the award.

Identifying PFAS in Alligator Plasma with LC–IMS-HRMS
April 15th 2025A combination of liquid chromatography ion mobility spectrometry, and high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–IMS-HRMS) for non-targeted analysis (NTA) was used to detect and identify per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in alligator plasma.
Extracting Estrogenic Hormones Using Rotating Disk and Modified Clays
April 14th 2025University of Caldas and University of Chile researchers extracted estrogenic hormones from wastewater samples using rotating disk sorption extraction. After extraction, the concentrated analytes were measured using liquid chromatography coupled with photodiode array detection (HPLC-PDA).
Profiling Terpenoids in Cannabis with GC×GC-MS
April 14th 2025A joint study conducted by the University of Ferrara (Italy) and the Council for Agricultural Research and Economics (Rome, Italy) focused on the analysis of terpenes and terpenoids—key bioactive compounds responsible for the distinctive flavor and potential therapeutic effects of cannabis. For this study, the research team used comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC×GC-MS) coupled with dynamic headspace extraction (DHS) to profile these compounds in cannabis inflorescences. LCGC International spoke to Flavio A. Franchina of the University of Ferrara, corresponding author of the paper which resulted from this study, about their research.
