Inside the Laboratory: Grinias Research Lab at Rowan University, Part III – LC Demonstration
In this continuing series from LCGC, we go on location to the Grinias Research Lab at Rowan University to see a liquid chromatographic analyzer in action.
Welcome to this installment of "Inside the Laboratory" in which the LCGC editorial team leaves their New Jersey office and ventures out in the field, with the goal of giving our audience a window into the next generation of analytical chemists.
Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, is home to the Grinias Research Lab headed by James Grinias, a professor in the department of Chemistry & Biochemistry. You can find the first two parts of our visit to the Grinias lab here:
Inside the Laboratory: Grinias Research Lab at Rowan University, Part I – Jim Grinias Interview
In the video below, Samuel Foster of the Grinias lab explains the mechanisms behind a liquid chromatography (LC) system and the software used to process LC analysis.
LCGC will be releasing further video interviews with Grinias’ students in the coming weeks.
