GC/MS is still a mainstay in forensic analysis for drugs of abuse testing in urine. Historically silica-based solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges have been used for these target analytes, the exac...
Breastfeeding offers significant health benefits for both infants and mothers, promoting optimal nutrition, immune protection, and developmental outcomes. However, maternal use of illicit drugs or mis...
The complexity and diverse nature of solid samples in food testing makes method standardisation extremely challenging. Pesticide analysis is firmly centred around traditional QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Ch...
This poster highlights the use of an expedited workflow incorporating a microwave reactor for synthesis, high-speed solvent evaporator for work-up/chromatography sample prep, and automated flash chrom...
For most organic and natural product chemists flash chromatography is a necessary part of their research. As such, many chemists need quick isolation of at least one desired component from a crude mix...
PFAS targets are of concern because of their high persistence, bioaccumulation and slow elimination with potential impacts on human and environmental health. Recently, human exposure has been linked w...
Two peptides, produced in the hypothalamus, oxytocin a 9-residue neuropeptide associated with parturition (childbirth) and lactation and vasopressin a peptide hormone associated with fluid retention a...
Early phase small animal drug trials have largely been the driver for miniaturization due to limited sample size. However, this trend is gaining popularity in forensic/clinical toxicology with respect...
Vitamin D deficiency can result in various health issues such as osteoporosis, liver and kidney problems and is associated with increased risk of cancers and multiple sclerosis. From this standpoint v...
Disulphide rich peptides exhibit exquisite stability due to the covalent stabilization of their secondary structure. After a particular sequence has been identified and mapped, these peptides are typi...
