A major trend in the analytical chemistry field today is to significantly reduce the size of analytical instruments. Reduction in size allows greater mobility, simpler operation, lower cost, and greater productivity. These characteristics are especially important in industries that need timely chemical measurements in diverse locations. To learn more, LCGC sat down with Axcend’s CEO…

A study conducted by researchers at Rowan University explores column selection in compact capillary liquid chromatography (LC) systems. A new study, published in the Journal of Chromatography A, compared the performances of various columns available on the market that can be used with compact and portable capillary LC systems. The study, done by researchers from Rowan…

A recent trend in the design of liquid chromatography (LC) instrumentation is the move towards miniaturized and portable systems. These smaller platforms provide wider flexibility in operation, with the opportunity for conducting analysis directly at the point of sample collection rather than transporting the sample to a centralized laboratory facility.
