High-Throughput 4D TIMS Method Accelerates Lipidomics Analysis
April 25th 2024Ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) had been previously proposed for untargeted lipidomics analysis, but this updated approach was reported by the authors to reduce run time to 4 min.
Traditional Chinese Medicine’s Effects on Liver Cancer Measured Using New UHPLC–QTOF-MS System
April 22nd 2024Scientists from Anhui University of Chinese Medicine in Hefei, China recently investigated the mechanisms behind what makes huachansu tablets, a type of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), effective against liver cancer.
As LCGC International celebrates Earth Day, we spotlight the current chromatographic research that is advancing environmental analysis and sustainability efforts. In this interview, we spoke to Daniel Armstrong, professor of chemistry and biochemistry at the University of Texas at Arlington, about his work using mathematical strategies to minimize analytical method greenness scores (AMGS) in HPLC enantioseparations.
To commemorate the celebration of Earth Day, LCGC International sat down with Laura Kuger of the Institute for Functional Interfaces (IFG) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology to talk about her latest research in using magnetic field-controlled chromatography to fractionate rare earth-containing phosphors.
Sustainability and Environmental Awareness in the World of Separation Science

Thermo Fisher PFAS Expert Discusses Laboratory Testing, Regulatory Partnerships
April 22nd 2024On this Earth Day, LCGC sits down with Toby Astill of Thermo Fisher Scientific to talk about laboratory testing of PFAS and how companies and industry work in tandem with governments and regulatory agencies to share information and effect changes in standards.
Richard Bade of the Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences (QAEHS) within The University of Queensland (Australia) and colleagues have recently published a paper outlining the development and application of a new workflow utilizing the open-source platform InSpectra, aiming to complement targeted analysis and identify geographical spatial trends in wastewater samples across multiple countries. Bade spoke to LCGC International about their research paper and the work that inspired it.
