Waters Donatess Research Equipment to University at Buffalo to Combat HIV/AIDS
At a ceremony that coincided with the 20th anniversary of Los Angeles Laker Marvin ?Magic? Johnson?s public revelation that he had acquired Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the University at Buffalo?s School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (Buffalo, New York) acknowledged Waters Corporation (Milford, Massachusetts) for its donation of an Acquity TQD System, a liquid chromatograph?mass spectrometer that will be used to build laboratory capacity and advance research into the treatment of HIV and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)-related illnesses in sub-Saharan Africa.

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.
