HPLC 2025 Preview: Functionalized Monoliths as Selective Sample Preparation Materials
May 16th 2025Analyzing trace compounds from complex samples often requires purification and pre-concentration, and online coupling of solid-phase extraction (SPE) with liquid chromatography (LC) helps minimize analysis time and solvent/sample use. Monoliths with large macropores are ideal for this coupling due to their low back pressure and versatility in various formats.
Quantifying Inorganic Carbon in Soil Using Sulfamic Acid and Gas Chromatography
May 15th 2025Researchers at Andes Ag, Inc. (Alameda, California) established a high-throughput framework for the robust and precise quantification of soil inorganic carbon (SIC) from agricultural soils using gas chromatography (GC).
Analysis of Ultrashort-Chain and Short-Chain (C1 to C4) PFAS in Water Samples (May 2025)
May 15th 2025In this study, an accurate, reliable analytical LC-MS/MS method for PFAS in water was developed to specifically quantify C1 to C4 PFAS in both potable and non-potable sources. A direct injection workflow was implemented to simplify the testing process and to avoid potential contamination originating from poor sample preparation procedures.
Analysis of PFAS in Milk by LC-MS/MS
May 15th 2025Dairy milk is one commodity that can be impacted by environmental contaminants, such as PFAS, so it is important to implement extensive, robust, and accurate testing. In this work, a sensitive and reliable method was developed for the analysis of PFAS in milk by LC-MS/MS at levels as low as 0.01 µg/kg.
