Agilent Technologies has launched a sample preparation product for high fat samples that it claims gives labs a better way to address ‘one of their most challenging tasks’. The Agilent Bond Elut ...

Solid-phase extraction has several advantages over liquid/liquid extraction for extractables and leachables studies. An extractable/leachable (E/L) study is routinely performed on the materials ...

For XRF analysis, fused bead creation via fusion provides a nearly perfect, homogeneous sample representation. This method is ideal for solid samples. Gas and electric fusion machines can be used to ...

Mass spectrometry has become a cornerstone technology for studying protein expression, interactions, and post-translational modifications (PTMs) across biological systems. Advances in instrumentation ...

In a new article, researchers provide an overview of sample preparation techniques and information on routine sample types that may be encountered in forensic toxicology cases. As analytical ...

To produce high-quality cement, the mineralogical and chemical composition of raw materials, as well as of intermediate and finished products, needs to be determined. At each stage of the production ...

The author examines sample-preparations methods used in inductively coupled plasma–optimal emission spectroscopy for four test metals. When analyzing for trace metals using inductively coupled plasma ...

Sample preparation is essential when employing chromatography for bioanalytical analysis as system performance will be negatively affected if it is not performed. Preparation methods include protein ...

The family of electron microscopy techniques have become staple methods for imaging nanoscale objects, including nanoparticles, viruses and proteins. The appeal of electron microscopy as a ...
