Speeding Up Your HPLC System
There are a few modifications which can be easily made, to both the HPLC system and column, which will achieve the desired goal of reduced analysis time. This article will provide some tips and tricks as well as detailing the theory behind the chromatography
Cars, internet, airplanes, people, everything is getting faster, including chromatography. The ultimate goal for chromatographers is to be able to achieve analyses in shorter run times without compromising the resolution, efficiency, and sensitivity that is strived for during method development. The wide availability of modern stationary phase packing materials and column dimensions makes this goal achievable to all chromatographers without, necessarily, the need for expensive ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) equipment.
There are a few modifications which can be easily made, to both the HPLC system and column, which will achieve the desired goal of reduced analysis time. This article will provide some tips and tricks as well as detailing the theory behind the chromatography.

Best of the Week: Food Analysis, Chemical Migration in Plastic Bottles, STEM Researcher of the Year
December 20th 2024Top articles published this week include the launch of our “From Lab to Table” content series, a Q&A interview about using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS) to assess chemical hazards in plastic bottles, and a piece recognizing Brett Paull for being named Tasmanian STEM Researcher of the Year.
Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
Determination of Pharmaceuticals by Capillary HPLC-MS/MS (Dec 2024)
December 19th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of a compact portable capillary liquid chromatograph, the Axcend Focus LC, coupled to an Agilent Ultivo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical drugs in model aqueous samples.
