Products, partnerships, investments - what’s going on in the analytical science business world

We spoke with the minds behind this year’s scientific program – Michael Laemmerhofer and Oliver J. Schmitz – to find out how HPLC is shaping up

Here, we present select results from the “Efficiency Challenge” survey ¬ and consult our efficiency experts

What is the origin of stereochemical bias – terrestrial autocatalytic processes, extraterrestrial contamination or otherworldly intervention? Here, I review the gas chromatographic tools being used in the search for homochirality in space – the final frontier.

In Lewis Carroll’s 1871 novel, Through the Looking-Glass, Alice suggests to her black kitten, “Perhaps Looking-Glass milk isn’t good to drink...” And though our four gurus don’t attempt to predict the potability of milk from a mirror world, they keenly address the broader significance of chirality, the major milestones in chiral analysis, and where the field is heading.

The four members of SLING discuss the growing importance and impact of lipidomics

“One of the giants of separation science,” Georges Guiochon (1931–2014) will certainly be missed. Equally certainly, he will continue to inspire and educate future generations. Here, seven friends, colleagues and collaborators remember Georges with great fondness.

Sitting Down With... Chris Pohl, Vice President, Chromatography Chemistry, Thermo Fisher Scientific, San Francisco Bay Area, USA.

Moving from 1D to 2D liquid chromatography is a big step towards the high peak capacities demanded by complex sample analysis.

Where does sample preparation stand today, and where is it going? Two experts – one from environmental ... chemistry, the other from pharmaceutical science – share views on the current, short-term and long – term outlook for sample prep.
