Finding the Right Forum to Learn about LC-MS

This collection of technical articles, interviews, and news pieces delves into the latest innovations in LC methods, including advance in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS), and multidimensional LC.

LCGC 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.

Here is some of the most popular content posted on LCGC International this week.

In this article, we review some key considerations for chromatographic technique selection and method development across the full drug process—from early-stage active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) synthesis to routine commercial release activities.

In this column, we discuss the label-free and stable isotope labeling proteomics approaches that help in biomarker discovery. We also discuss the different enrichment techniques, such as stable isotope labeling by amino acid in cell culture (SILAC), isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ), and tandem mass tags (TMT, that help in measuring low-abundance protein biomarkers.

LCGC International spoke to Silvia Valverde and Ana María Ares of this group about their research and the resulting article.
