Metabolomics & Lipidomics

Liquid chromatography is not just an analytical tool for today, it offers a great deal for the future.

At ASMS 2015, GC-Orbitrap™ technology was unleashed onto an expectant analytical community. Here’s the backstory.

As new technology platforms push us to the limits of what’s possible, the metabolomics community is closing in on the future of the field: routine and rapid quantitative analysis.

Four stationary phase experts – Emily Hilder, Frantisek Svec, Nobuo Tanaka and Sebastiaan Eeltink – discuss the unfolding story of monolithic columns: from chromatographic curiosity to the future of sample preparation?

At the heart of the drive for increased epidemiological knowledge, faster diagnostics and better-informed treatment decisions are collaborations between medical doctors and analytical specialists.

Why analytical chemistry must be leveraged in the next generation of wearable devices.

A concern raised by the rise in routine MRI screening within the healthcare industry is that the ability to detect abnormalities within the body may currently be running ahead of our understanding of their possible consequences, making it difficult to determine a sound course of action. Here then analytical science is arguably advancing beyond current requirements.
