Markes International connects with the local community – and gets the wider community to connect with analytical science.

Lawrence (Larry) Lesko is a bioanalytical veteran with many years of academic and FDA experience. Now, as director of the University of Florida’s Center for Pharmacometrics and Systems Pharmacology, Larry uses metabolomics to discover biomarkers of drug toxicity.

TLC-MS is here and still evolving – continual advances in coupling techniques and ambient mass spectrometry are giving rise to a renaissance. Here, we share the most promising techniques and open your eyes to the powerful – and flexible – combinations of TLC and MS.

Sitting Down With... Barry Karger, James L. Waters Chair in Analytical Chemistry and Barnett Institute Director at Northeastern University, Massachusetts, USA.

And it appears Pluto loves us back – its “two-tone heart” has enchanted scientists and the general public alike. But what’s that got to do with analytical science?

This paper shows how using a solvent trap can be used to prevent sample drying/solvent loss during extended testing, helping to ensure that only rheological changes are being measured and not artifacts resulting from drying of the sample at the air/sample interface.

The top 10 reasons to consider an advanced multi-detector SEC system, which incorporates light scattering detectors for the measurement of absolute molecular weight and molecular weight distribution with excellent accuracy.

The stability of a protein sample and its tendency to aggregate is explored using a combination of SEC-MALS and DLS

Read how DLS-based optical microrheology can be used to determine the rheological behavior of polymer solutions and the impact of tracer particle chemistry on the measured microrheological response.

In August, The Analytical Scientist will publish a special issue celebrating the very best images in the field of analytical science. And you have the chance to submit an image that defines your work.
