In our February issue:
COLUMNS
LC TROUBLESHOOTING
Slow Column Equilibration
Why are LC retention times sometimes so slow to stabilize? John Dolan explains more. |
COLUMN WATCH
Retention of Stationary Phases in HILIC
HILIC is a complex system involving partition, polar, and ion-exchange interactions. Method development can be greatly facilitated by understanding the interactions that the different stationary phases provide and applying that knowledge to the separation task at hand. |
QUESTIONS OF QUALITY
Life Cycle Assessment of HPLC Instruments
This instalment of "Questions of Quality" looks at problems with an operational liquid chromatograph to see if they can be picked up in the performance qualification (PQ) or prevented in the operational qualification (OQ). |

PEER-REVIEWED ARTICLES
Fast GC–MS–MS Analysis of Environmental Contaminants in Fish
A rapid, high-throughput analytical method was developed and evaluated for the simultaneous determination of pesticides and environmental contaminants in fish. |
UHPLC Analysis of Complex Pharmaceuticals
Experimental results and method validation data from two analytical case studies of complex small molecule pharmaceuticals illustrate the utility and advantages of UHPLC in high-resolution separations. |
