Trajan Scientific and Medical (Victoria, Australia) has completed the acquisition of the chromatography and liquid handling businesses of SGE Analytical Science (Ringwood, Victoria, Australia).
SGE was founded in 1961 in Australia by Ern Dawes, and has remained within the Dawes family for over 50 years. The business has grown to 300 staff worldwide, with manufacturing operations in Ringwood, Australia, and subsidiary offices in the USA, Europe, and Japan. Under the terms of the agreement, Trajan has acquired these sites along with all shareholdings.
“Trajan’s goal is to bring together a group of leading companies with a common focus in the areas of biological, environmental, and food analysis. SGE is an ideal platform for Trajan, with a global footprint and a depth of capability and infrastructure, servicing the leading companies in analytical science” said Stephen Tomisich, CEO of Trajan.

Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography for Oligonucleotide Therapeutics: Method Consideration
March 10th 2025Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) has emerged as a promising alternative to traditional ion-pair reversed phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC) methods for separating oligonucleotides (ON). This work investigates the application of HILIC to the separation of ON sequence and length variants, duplexes, and single-stranded components.
Matrix Effects on Quantitation in Liquid Chromatography: Sources and Solutions
March 10th 2025The “matrix effect” is one of the sticky details that can make the use of liquid chromatography (LC) for quantitative purposes challenging, even though it is conceptually quite straightforward. In this installment of LC Troubleshooting, Dwight Stoll reviews what is being referred to during talks about “matrix effects”, and discusses some of the potential origins of the phenomenon in practice.
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.
