Profiling MDMA Impurities Using HS—SPME
Profiling impurities in MDMA (also known as ecstasy) is essential to forensic science as different profiles can provide clues about the source. Two researchers from Michigan State University (Michigan, USA) investigated the effect of liquid–liquid extraction (LLE), headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS–SPME), and different gas chromatography temperature programmes highlighting the need for standardized procedures.

Are All HPLC C18 Phases the Same?
It's just a silica support with a C18 bonded on – surely there can't be much difference between them? Wrong. There are huge differences between standard C18 phases and simply swapping one C18 for another, without accounting for these differences, will produce differences in retention time, resolution, and peak elution order.
