FMS introduces the first and only "Total Solution" Sample Prep system that combines three sample prep processes into one economical package.
FMS introduces the first and only "Total Solution" Sample Prep system that combines three sample prep processes into one economical package. The TRP-Total-Rapid-Prep performs extraction, sample clean-up and concentration for six samples simultaneously in a few hours, producing the highest recoveries and best results for all analytes.
An easy to use window based software controls the system and is fully programmable. With the TRP system you have the option to run a single sample prep process such as extraction, sample cleanup, concentration or run a variety of processes including extraction, clean-up and concentration all in one single step. The TRP system increases sample throughput while reducing errors and poor recoveries. It also provides a cleaner background and eliminates cross contamination due to its advanced closed loop system design. TRP uses FMS's high quality and inexpensive Teflon based disposable columns which guarantee high recoveries and eliminate glassware clean-up. Applications include Dioxins, PCBs, PAHs, PBDEs and Pesticides.

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.
Metabolomics Analysis of Low Birth-Weight Infants Using UHPLC-MS/MS Following Lipid Emulsion
January 10th 2025A recent study aimed to directly compare the changes in serum metabolites among very low birth-rate (VLBW) infants following the administration of the soybean oil-based lipid emulsion and soybean oil, medium-chain triglycerides, olive oil, and fish oil (SMOF) lipid emulsion using untargeted metabolomics techniques.
PFAS Analysis in Practice: A RAFA 2024 Interview with Stefan van Leuwen
January 10th 2025At the Recent Advances in Food Analysis (RAFA) conference in 2024, LCGC International sat down with Stefan van Leuwen of Wageningen Food Safety Research to discuss his research, which addresses emerging challenges in circular food production, focusing on the risks posed by pollutants when waste and by-products are repurposed in food systems.
