In my last two installments in this series, I covered Hydrophobic
Interaction Liquid Chromatography (link to blog post) and Sample
Preparation: Three Techniques Reviewed (link to blog post); and here,...
After my last two posts on dealing with the challenges of interference
in trace elemental analysis (link to post) and an overview on the
analysis of fracking wastewater (link to post), I thought I wou...
When I am fortunate enough to buy a new car, one of my pleasures in the
new car is the pure joy of sitting inside it and smelling that lovely

A key challenge in chlor-alkali production processes is the need to
monitor the formation of contaminants and by-products in concentrated
caustics. Ion chromatography with suppressed conductivity dete...
In my very first blog post, my focus is on how functional enhancements
in new or updated instrumentation can produce more sensitive measurement
of targeted compounds and provide fresh perspective and ...
I was recently made aware of a publication that appeared in the Journal
of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (Wang et al, 2014, 62 (42), pp

As practitioners in the world of pharmaceutical manufacturing and
quality control, you’ll know that the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention
(USP) 232 and its requirements for trace element determination in ...
For many years, I’ve witnessed a very confusing aspect about cation
analysis by ion chromatography. In some circles, there is a myth that
suppression isn’t needed. No one would consider NOT using a su...
In my previous blog titled: Arsenic Speciation: The Media and the
Science I promised updates on this hot topic and as a big plus for me
personally, this review incorporates my passion for ion analysis...
I hope you found the last installment on Hydrophobic Interaction Liquid
Chromatography (link to blog post) useful. Supporting my goal to discuss
