The LCGC Blog: Big Molecule Analysis for Small Molecule People
Tony Taylor explores the rapidly changing landscape of protein-based therapeutics, cutting through the avalanche of developments in instrumentation, sample preparation, and column technologies to take a high level view and focus in on the routine in biomolecule characterization.
Automated Solid Phase Extraction System for High Throughput PFC analysis
The TurboTrace® PFC (Perfluoralkylated substances) SPE system is designed to streamline your laboratory's workflow and increase productivity by automating the manual steps in your sample preparation process. It is designed for high throughput and tough sample matrices. It isthe first automated solid phase extraction system made specifically for PFC extraction and concentration. Effective at reducing background contamination, extraction and concentration of aqueous samples takes less than two hours. Learn more
New Chromatography Columns and Accessories for 2016
Our annual review of new liquid chromatography (LC) columns and accessories introduced at Pittcon and throughout the previous year. Techniques covered include HPLC, UHPLC, HILIC, SFC, IC, and SEC as well as reversed-phase, chiral, and affinity chromatography.

LCGC TV: Buying a Mass Spectrometer: Questions of Resolution and Ion Mobility?
If you can afford more resolution for your mass spectrometer it’s always a good idea to have some in reserve. Barbara Larsen from DuPont Central Research and Development discusses how you should decide how much resolution you need. She also offers advice on the benefits of ion mobility for mass spectrometry.
36th International Symposium on Halogenated Persistent Organic Pollutants – DIOXIN 2016
JOIN US! It is relevant to meet in Florence a mother city of Art Renaissance and also the city where Galileo worked and where the first modern experimental demonstration of “every life comes from a life” was made by Redi. A characteristic of this conference is the special attention to younger generation, both Students and Young Researchers.
Deadline for Abstract submission will be May 15th. Learn more
