How to Gain More Information About the Conjugation State of Your Polymer
Malvern Instruments
A photodiode array detector (PDA) used in conjunction with a gel permeation chromatography (GPC) system adds new insight into the properties of polymers, that can assist with designing the optimum polymer for applications such as an OLED emitter. This collaborative application note uses three different examples to highlight the benefits of adding a PDA to your GPC system. Read More |

The Fully Automated Solid Phase Extraction of Aqueous Samples by Method EPA 8270D
Philip Bassignani, FMS,Inc.
EPA 8270D calls for the extraction for analysis of semi-volatile analytes in various matrices. Target analytes mentioned in the method cover a wide range of compound classes resulting in reporting lists that often approach 100 compounds. In aqueous samples, the combination of compound groups such as phenols, analines, PAHs, phthalates, explosives, pesticides, n-nitro-soamines, and others results in a tedious process of multiple LLE (liquid-liquid extractions) with multiple pH adjustments to extract all the analytes.

Determination of Carboxy-THC (THCA) in Urine Samples Using Solid-Phase Extraction and GC–MS
Jeff Hackett, UCT, LLC
This methodology details the isolation of Carboxy-THC (THCA) from urine samples using solid-phase extraction on Clean Screen THC columns. After rinsing and drying the sorbent, the THCA was eluted using a solution of acidified ethyl acetate/hexane. The eluate was dried and derivatized using MSTFA prior to analysis by GC–MS. Read More |
