Liquid Chromatography

Can surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) help catch vain criminals?

When bottles of beer from the 1840s were found on a shipwreck, there was only one thought on the minds of analytical scientists: what chemicals do they contain?

Can triglyceride fingerprinting and NMR help find adulterated meat?

We started with a simple question: who’s leading the way in chromatography? Here, we present our findings from a publication and citation analysis of international institutions represented in The Analytical Scientist’s 2013 Power List.

Let’s go back to the early 1990s when an important innovation was starting to cause a stir. Electrospray ionization (ESI) essentially allowed liquid chromatography (LC) and mass spectrometry (MS) to be combined much more easily as an analytical technique.

How The Analytical Scientist Innovation Award (TASIA) winning ionKey/MS System made ultra-sensitive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) ultra accessible.

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?

Other techniques are beating chromatography and mass spectrometry to the hero’s reward all too often. Are they better? No. Are they faster to first result? Yes. Is it time to acknowledge that – on the frontlines – fit-for-purpose triumphs over best-in-class? You decide.
