Welcome to the first global edition of The Column. This issue sees a merger with The Peak from LC•GC North America to create one global digital magazine.
With a combined circulation of almost 139 000 chromatographers throughout Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East, The Column will now serve the biggest single chromatography audience in the world.
Our North American readers will notice a new screen-friendly layout and increased frequency as we pick up The Column’s twice-monthly publishing schedule worldwide. And readers everywhere will benefit from a new global perspective as we draw insights and information from our US and European editorial teams.
Regular content will include familiar application-based features incorporating the latest scientific advances providing practical use to the reader, alongside the latest global news of company acquisitions, current research, conferences and other exciting developments within the industry.
Our market trends and analysis column will continue to deliver the facts on statistics and trends within the separation science industry; while Incognito will provide a sometimes controversial viewpoint on developments and trends impacting those working within the sector.
We will be publishing interviews with key personnel from both academia and industry explaining recent research and developments in technology and offering practical advice on how to maximize the benefits of GPC/SEC.
Add an up-to-date listing of key dates in the global chromatography calendar and a selection of the latest chromatographic equipment releases around the world dedicated to specific techniques, and you have the first truly global chromatography magazine ever published.
As always, please let us know what you think of this new publication. We really want your feedback. And don’t worry if you need to access past articles from The Peak; archived editions for all our previous digital publications will still be available through our website www.chromatographyonline.com.
If you haven’t subscribed already, please click here to make sure you don’t miss out on the biggest chromatography magazine community in the world.
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.
Liquid Chromatography to Analyze Vitamin D Proteins in Psoriasis Patients
January 21st 2025Can a protein involved in delivering Vitamin D to target tissues have an altered serum profile in psoriasis patients with cardiovascular disease? Researchers used liquid chromatography (LC) to help find out.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
A Guide To Finding the Ideal Syringe and Needle
January 20th 2025Hamilton has produced a series of reference guides to assist science professionals in finding the best-suited products and configurations for their applications. The Syringe and Needle Reference Guide provides detailed information on Hamilton Company’s full portfolio of syringes and needles. Everything from cleaning and preventative maintenance to individual part numbers are available for review. It also includes selection charts to help you choose between syringe terminations like cemented needles and luer tips.
