Was an assistant analytical chemistry professor mistaken to instruct graduates not to “thank God”?

Nick Kim gifts us with his very analytical and amusing view of the world around us.

Carbon black nanoreporters can warn oil producers of unacceptable levels of hydrogen sulfide

A report from the US National Science Board (NSB) has denounced excessive bureaucracy faced by researchers and urges a “focus on the science”

Analysis of “dirty” ice from 3000 meters down reveals that ancient soil exists beneath the Greenland ice sheet

Where does inspiration come from? I mean the insight that leads you to a new invention or that suddenly makes you aware of the solution to a problem?

Exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) remains a significant threat to a substantial proportion of the European population. To maintain high levels of vigilance, analytical strategies need to evolve. Here, I propose substantial changes to the EU’s monitoring strategy, changes that channel the power of modern analytical technology to accurately, rapidly and inexpensively monitor food and feed for dioxins, PCBs and as-yet-unidentified toxicants.

Two-dimensional liquid chromatography certainly sounds impressive and produces some pretty pictures, but is it essential in the analysis of complex samples? Here, we show that 2D-LC offers both style and substance.

Agilent Technology’s Markets and Applications Programs – MAPs for short – connect you to a growing network of expertise to provide working solutions for your analytical business.

This Application Note presents the sensitive determination of anions in water samples using the isocratic AZURA Compact System with suppressed conductivity detection.
