Environmental Forensics in the Workplace
Populations worldwide are exposed to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) that can be harmful to human health. LCGC spoke to David Megson from Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada, about recent developments in assessing human exposure to PCBs and chiral enantiomer fractions (EFs) in the workplace.
Simply Unique GC-MS/MS
The Thermo Scientific™ TSQ™ Duo GC-MS/MS system is tailored to chromatographers and single quadrupole GC-MS users who need easy access to powerful new MS/MS workflows while continuing to satisfy their current methods requirements. The TSQ Duo is the only cost-sensitive instrument that enables truly simple, single and triple quadrupole mass spectrometry in a single investment. Learn More

The Acid Test — More Useful Calculations for HPLC Eluent Preparation
Mobile-phase preparation for LC–MS requires careful consideration to ensure the correct pH values and concentrations are obtained. This blog installment details the difference between using volume percent and weight percent to make up 0.1% solutions of trifluoroacetic acid and the effect it has on the pH.
Resources for Environmental Analysis
We all know that environmental analysis is full of complexity. The Chromatography Solution Center, developed by LCGC in coordination with a leading supplier, can help — by providing a variety of articles, application notes, videos, and other resources — updated monthly. This month's offering includes: Ion Chromatography Solution Center
