Varian Inc. & Flora Research Laboratories form Alliance to Support Advancement of LC-MS Science Related To Dietary Supplement cGMP's
Varian Inc. (Walnut Creek, CA) and Flora Research Laboratories (Grants Pass, OR) have formed an alliance to advance the understanding and implementation of LC-MS solutions for complex dietary supplement analysis.
Varian Inc. (Walnut Creek, CA) and Flora Research Laboratories (Grants Pass, OR) have formed an alliance to advance the understanding and implementation of LC-MS solutions for complex dietary supplement analysis. With the implementation of new cGMP regulations for dietary supplements, the FDA now requires substantially higher levels of testing for dietary supplement ingredients than required previously under the food cGMP’s. Often, these new testing demands can be more easily accomplished with the use of LC-MS solutions saving tens of thousands of dollars in method development. To assist in-house and independent laboratories ease the implementation of LC-MS solutions, Flora Research Laboratories will be working closely with Varian Inc. to develop educational sessions, application notes, peer-reviewed journal articles, and other resources demonstrating how this process can be accomplished with an investment similar to that one would pay for a traditional quality HPLC combined detector solution.
LCGC’s Year in Review: Highlights in Liquid Chromatography
December 20th 2024This collection of technical articles, interviews, and news pieces delves into the latest innovations in LC methods, including advance in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS), and multidimensional LC.
Next Generation Peak Fitting for Separations
December 11th 2024Separation scientists frequently encounter critical pairs that are difficult to separate in a complex mixture. To save time and expensive solvents, an effective alternative to conventional screening protocols or mathematical peak width reduction is called iterative curve fitting.
Mobile Phase Buffers in Liquid Chromatography: A Review of Essential Ideas
December 11th 2024In this installment of "LC Troubleshooting," Dwight Stoll discusses several essential principles related to when and why buffers are important, as well as practical factors, such as commonly used buffering agents, that are recommended for use with different types of detectors.
