Professor James Jorgenson of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, in North Carolina, USA, has received the Csaba Horváth Medal and Scroll at the Csaba Horváth Memorial Award Symposium, Yale West Campus Conference Center.
Jorgenson received the award for his exemplary work in modern separation sciences, specifically his research in capillary electrophoresis and his proof of concept studies in ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC).
Following the award presentation, Jorgenson gave a plenary lecture on a novel packing technique for capillary columns using thick slurries with ultraâsonication. The resulting chromatogram from these columns displayed a plate count of 500,000 plates - twice that of standard columns. Jorgenson also spoke about his recent research work on graphitic carbon packing, which shows high retention for polar compounds and unique selectivity for isomeric separations. - L.B.

University of Rouen-Normandy Scientists Explore Eco-Friendly Sampling Approach for GC-HRMS
April 17th 2025Root exudates—substances secreted by living plant roots—are challenging to sample, as they are typically extracted using artificial devices and can vary widely in both quantity and composition across plant species.
Determining the Serum Proteomic Profile in Migraine Patients with LC–MS
April 17th 2025Researchers used liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) in their proteomic analysis to compare the serum proteome of migraine patients with healthy controls and to identify differentially expressed proteins as potential migraine biomarkers.
