Editors’ Series: A Generic HPLC-UV Platform Method for Cleaning Verification
We describe the development and qualification of a simple, 10-min generic HPLC-UV gradient method for quantitative assays of cleaning verification solutions (0.2 – 10 mg/mL) and demonstrate approaches to increase sensitivity to low ng/mL levels by large-volume injections, sample concentrations, and the use of long-path UV flow cells. We report the attainment of similar method performance with a run time of 1.5 min using sub-2-μm or sub-3-μm core–shell columns on ultrahigh-pressure LC (UHPLC) systems. We provide rationales for parameter selections during the method development process to illustrate how the application of modern chromatographic principles can be used to quickly optimize method performance for intended use. This generic analytical methodology is readily adaptable to rinse or swabbing solutions and potentially for other applications such as in-process (IPC) control testing or rapid potency assays of many pharmaceuticals.

Determining the Effects of ‘Quantitative Marinating’ on Crayfish Meat with HS-GC-IMS
April 30th 2025A novel method called quantitative marinating (QM) was developed to reduce industrial waste during the processing of crayfish meat, with the taste, flavor, and aroma of crayfish meat processed by various techniques investigated. Headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS) was used to determine volatile compounds of meat examined.
University of Tasmania Researchers Explore Haloacetic Acid Determiniation in Water with capLC–MS
April 29th 2025Haloacetic acid detection has become important when analyzing drinking and swimming pool water. University of Tasmania researchers have begun applying capillary liquid chromatography as a means of detecting these substances.
Using GC-MS to Measure Improvement Efforts to TNT-Contaminated Soil
April 29th 2025Researchers developing a plant microbial consortium that can repair in-situ high concentration TNT (1434 mg/kg) contaminated soil, as well as overcome the limitations of previous studies that only focused on simulated pollution, used untargeted metabolone gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to measure their success.
