From the sun, a solution: Cornell University and Weill Cornell Medical College researchers have remodeled an energy-intensive medical test – designed to detect a deadly skin cancer related to HIV infections – to create a quick diagnostic assay perfect for remote regions of the world, according to Scientific Reports (Feb. 20), an online publication of Nature.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed a fast, simple, direct-injection ion chromatography method with eluent generation to determine total and potential sulfate and total chloride in gasoline-denatured ethanol samples.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an innovative gas chromatography (GC) method for the determination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in mineral insulating oil using solid phase micro extraction (SPME) and gas chromatography with an electron capturedetector (ECD).

Thermo Fisher Scientific has released a technical note (TN) that challenges the common misconception that there is significant variation in high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAE-PAD) peak area response of oligosaccharides.

Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an ion chromatography method for nuclear power plants (NPPs) that determines trace concentrations (less than 1 µg/L) of fluoride, chloride, and sulfate in simulated secondary feed water that contains ethanolamine, hydrazine, and polyacrylic acid in just 20 minutes.
