LCGC TV: Customizing SPME Coatings for Individual Analytes
Most SPME sorbent coatings are broadly selective. Jared Anderson from the Iowa State University discusses why there is a need to design coatings for SPME analysis that are more targeted for specific types of analytes and the rewards that can be reaped. |

Useful Free Tools for HPLC Method Development
I've done that thing where I've stated a very interesting title—I hope I can deliver something which lives up to it. I dislike it when people “overstate” their talk or poster titles at conferences to draw me in and then don't deliver against the promise—I'll let you judge how we go here. |

Evaluating the Potential of HPLC with IMS-MS for Metabolomics
The coupling of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ion mobility spectrometry hyphenated to mass spectrometry (IMS-MS). Tim Causon and Stephan Hann of the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences in Vienna, Austria, spoke to LCGC about their work evaluating this approach and exploring its possibilities for metabolomics. |

Smelling Arthritis
Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) may be a viable diagnostic tool for inflammatory arthritis according to research from the University of Amsterdam. The study used an “electronic nose” (eNose) and GC–MS to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) within the breathprints of patients. |
