The Pittsburgh Conference announces the launch of a totally re-designed web site for Pittcon 2007 (www.pittcon.org) with improved navigation enabling direct access to key information about the Conference and Expo and an overall improved appearance and design. The web site relays vital information to Pittcon conferees, exhibitors, and media representatives.Other improvements to the site include an enhanced Media Center and the addition of an International Travel section, a much requested photo gallery, brand manual, and a glossary of terms. The new site will be continually updated as new information regarding Pittcon 2007 becomes available.
The site's development is a result of a collaborative effort between The Pittsburgh Conference and H2, a Pittsburgh-based company providing integrated marketing and technology solutions.

Reversed-Phases for LC Deliberately Doped with Positive Charge: Tips and Tricks for Effective Use
May 13th 2025In this month's edition of LC Troubleshooting, Dwight Stoll and his fellow researchers discuss both the benefits (improved peak shape/loading) and challenges (excessive interaction) associated with charge-doped reversed-phase (RP) columns for both analytical and preparative separations.
Determining Ways to Protect Honeybee Colonies with GC–MS
May 13th 2025A study conducted by the Agriculture Research Centre of Giza, Egypt, and Jilin Agricultural University in China, evaluated the efficacy of stinging nettle extract, nettle smoke, and formic acid in the controlling of Varroa mites, a major threat to honeybee colonies, with a focus on mite infestation reduction, honeybee mortality, and biochemical responses. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was used to identify key bioactive compounds in the stinging nettle extract.
