Researchers from the China Pharmaceutical University in Nanjing, China, have published a review of the recent advances in the preparation and application of monolithic capillary columns in separation science. The publication features a review of three novel preparation strategies for the preparation of capillary monoliths, including ionic liquid-based approaches, nanoparticle-based approaches, and a “click chemistry” approach. Furthermore, the article summarizes the recent strategies utilized in constructing different capillary monoliths for enantiomeric separation, and describes the advancement of capillary monoliths for complex sample analysis.

Simultaneous Screening of Pesticide Residues in Date Fruits with UHPLC–MS/MS and GC–MS/MS
March 7th 2025Comprehensive information was derived through the utilization of a QuEChERS-UHPLC–MS/MS and GC–MS/MS method for the detection of 211 volatile and stable pesticide residues in 90 date fruit samples.
The Next Frontier for Mass Spectrometry: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025In this podcast, Daniel DeBord, CTO of MOBILion Systems, describes a new high resolution mass spectrometry approach that promises to increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. MOBILion recently introduced the PAMAF mode of operation, which stands for parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation. It substantially increases the fraction of ions used for mass spectrometry analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high resolution ion mobility. Listen to learn more about this exciting new development.
Pick Your Poison. Isolation of Paclitaxel (Mar 2025)
March 7th 2025The diterpenoid, paclitaxel, which was identified as a potent chemotherapy agent for breast and ovarian cancer originates from the Pacific Yew tree. The isolation of paclitaxel from its major impurities is shown with the use of Hamilton’s PRP-1 (5 µm) HPLC column.
