The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the USA and the European Commission in the EU has established lists of tolerance levels, also known as maximum residue limits (MRLs) for different food contaminants in different animal edible tissues. Therefore, reliable analytical methods are needed to determine compliance with both national and international regulations in all areas of food quality and safety.In the latest issue of The Column, we…See More

Isolation and purification techniques play a massive role in drug discovery. Being able to strategically control your synthetic route is vital. In recent years both High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) have provided high quality compounds for biological testing cheaply and to time. With shorter turnaround times required, alongside increased throughput and cost restrictions, purification departments are being pushed to the limit. This is no…See More
