Column Selection for HPLC Method Development
Are we making the most of the ToolKit method development platforms approach? The toolkit approach should provide a highly efficient and wide ranging exploration of the separation possibilities for the application under investigation, in particular the selectivity, which will drive the separation under development. |

Why Effective HPLC Separations Are Critical for the Analysis of High-Complexity Systems
In proteomics studies, proteins are digested into hundreds of thousands of peptides, thus creating very large and complicated mixtures. Simultaneous electrospray ionization of these complex mixtures, however, results in suppression of ion formation. Therefore, it is essential to have effective chromatographic methods to separate the peptides before analysis with mass spectrometry, to relieve ion suppression and to allow the mass spectrometer sufficient time to collect tandem mass spectra of peptide ions. The challenges involved in developing such separations are great, however.
This is the first of a series of articles exploring topics that will be addressed at the HPLC 2016 conference in San Francisco, from June 19 to 24. |

The Funding Environment in Europe Compared to the US
Changes in the focus of US funding agencies have made life harder for many separation scientists. Apryll Stalcup of the Irish Separation Science Cluster discusses the differences between research funding in Europe and the US, and the variety of mechanisms and incentives in Europe that foster the separation sciences. |
