June–July 2007
HPLC Workshops
Reading and Manchester, UK
A series of one-day workshops, sponsored by Hichrom Limited, will take place at the Madejski Stadium in Reading and the Copthorne Hotel in Manchester.
The courses are being led by David Carr who has been involved in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) since 1971.
An acknowledged HPLC expert, David Carr has developed several courses for understanding the basic principles of HPLC and the important aspects of reversed-phase method development.
- An Introduction to HPLC – 26 June 2007, Reading
This short one-day course introduces scientists to the basic concepts and operational principles of high performance liquid chromatography, with an emphasis on reversed-phase HPLC. No previous HPLC training is assumed.
- HPLC Method Development – 27 June 2007, Reading
Reversed-phase method development is looked upon as a mystery by many chromatographers. This course guides chromatographers through each step of the pathway that leads to achieving good resolution. The course will be
especially valuable to those with some chromatography experience who are either unfamiliar with method development or wish to improve their existing strategies.
- Bioanalysis by HPLC – 3 July 2007, Manchester
This course is designed for scientists involved in the pharmaceutical field, especially those involved with the analysis or characterisation of protein herapeutic drugs. No previous experience of HPLC is necessary.
- Optimising HPLC Separations – 4 July 2007, Manchester
This course is designed to assist chromatographers in reducing analysis costs and increasing laboratory throughput by developing faster, more reproducible HPLC assays in a time effective manner. Much of the course will appeal to the more experienced chromatographer intending to improve existing methods or developing new methods.
A training brochure with further details on all of these courses and others is available. For your copy or for more information on any of the above
seminars please contact Peggy Lloyd on tel: 0118 930 3660, fax: 0118 932 3484 or e-mail: seminars@hichrom.co.uk

HPLC 2007
Ghent, Belgium
HPLC 2007, the premier meeting for liquid phase separations and related
techniques, will take place from 17–21 June in the International Convention Centre, Ghent, Belgium.
Ghent has all the assets of a Metropolis in a cosy university town located in the heart of Flanders, Belgium.
The programme will include plenary and keynote lectures, prominently featured poster presentations, an exhibition displaying the latest instrumental innovations in separation science and related subjects and a highly attractive social programme offering opportunities to meet with world renowned scientists.

Measuring Procyanidin Concentration in Wines Using UHPLC
January 24th 2025Researchers from the University of Bordeaux (Villenave d'Ornon, France) report the development and validation of a rapid and quantitative analytical method measuring crown procyanidin concentration in red and white wines using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) coupled with a ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (Q-TOF) mass spectrometer.
The Next Frontier for Mass Spectrometry: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025In this podcast, Daniel DeBord, CTO of MOBILion Systems, describes a new high resolution mass spectrometry approach that promises to increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. MOBILion recently introduced the PAMAF mode of operation, which stands for parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation. It substantially increases the fraction of ions used for mass spectrometry analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high resolution ion mobility. Listen to learn more about this exciting new development.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
Testing Solutions for Metals and PFAS in Water
January 22nd 2025When it comes to water analysis, it can be challenging for labs to keep up with ever-changing testing regulations while also executing time-efficient, accurate, and risk-mitigating workflows. To ensure the safety of our water, there are a host of national and international regulators such as the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), World Health Organization (WHO), and the European Union (EU) that demand stringent testing methods for drinking water and wastewater. Those methods often call for fast implementation and lengthy processes, as well as high sensitivity and reliable instrumentation. This paper explains how your ICP-MS, ICP-OES, and LC-MS-MS workflows can be optimized for compliance with the latest requirements for water testing set by regulations like US EPA methods 200.8, 6010, 6020, and 537.1, along with ISO 17294-2. It will discuss the challenges faced by regulatory labs to meet requirements and present field-proven tips and tricks for simplified implementation and maximized uptime.
