LCGC International Celebrates Earth Day: A Preview of Our Upcoming Content Series
This upcoming, one-day online event will focus on the latest chromatographic research in environmental analysis and sustainability.
Earth Day is a holiday that is celebrated annually on April 22nd. It is a holiday that celebrates, and reinforces the importance of, environmental sustainability and preserving Earth for future generations.
Earth Day is a time to raise awareness about environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, pollution, and loss of biodiversity. It encourages individuals, communities, and governments to understand the impact of their actions on the environment.
Earth Day also inspires and empowers people globally to take steps and do their part to preserve the planet. Many people participate in Earth Day by engaging in environmentally friendly practices, including supporting eco-friendly initiatives, or engaging in community service. It also serves as a day where environmental policies are advocated for on the federal, state, or local level.
But most most importantly, it’s also a holiday that encourages environmental education in schools, universities, and communities, fostering a deeper understanding of ecological principles and the importance of conservation.
This year for Earth Day, LCGC International will be hosting a one-day, online content series on environmental analysis, where we will share the latest research in environmental analysis and sustainability.
Chromatography plays a crucial role in environmental analysis by enabling the separation, identification, and quantification of various components present in samples. It provides the analytical capabilities needed to address complex environmental challenges and safeguard the health of ecosystems and human populations.
On April 22, LCGC International will share several interviews, technical, and feature articles that show the impact of chromatography on environmental analysis and sustainability efforts. Below, you’ll find a preview of the series. We look forward to celebrating Earth Day with our readers!
Inside the Laboratory: The Richardson Group at the University of South Carolina
November 20th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Susan Richardson of the University of South Carolina discusses her laboratory’s work with using electron ionization and chemical ionization with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to detect DBPs in complex environmental matrices, and how her work advances environmental analysis.
GC–MS Targeted Analysis of PFAS Helps Expand Knowledge of Toxicokinetic Data
November 1st 2024Limited toxicokinetic and toxicologic information is available about a diverse set of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), but methods based on gas chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (GC–MS/MS) can help unravel some of the mystery.
