The market for high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) continues to be one of the most dynamic markets of the analytical instruments industry. A few years ago, the HPLC market began showing signs of maturity with little product innovation and slower growth rates. Although innovations in mass spectrometry (MS) helped to fuel growth, HPLC was an afterthought and considered to be a mere inlet to MS. However, the recent development of fast liquid chromatography (LC) systems is energizing the HPLC market.

Analytical technologies have been applied to many problems of the modern world, though usually in the domain of the laboratory or to regulate production on the factory floor. However, modern instrumentation can provide valuable information in many other settings as well. Security applications demand sensitive information, accurate information and fast information. These are precisely the kinds of problems that instrumentation has been solving in the research setting for decades. The application of analytical technology to the security of nations, facilities, and people has become an important segment of the industry.
Millipore and Rohm and Haas Company have entered into a joint development agreement to create high-performance chromatography products that are used to manufacture biologic drugs...

Because most samples are usually unsuitable for direct analysis, extraction is perhaps one of the most important sample preparation techniques for environmental samples. The most common types of extraction techniques include solid phase extraction (SPE), Soxhlett/liquid?liquid extraction (LLE), and advanced extraction techniques. The method used for a particular application depends on the nature of a sample.

Flash chromatography is a type of preparative liquid chromatography commonly used in the separation of organic compounds. When purifying organic compounds, few techniques are as easy, inexpensive, and speedy as flash chromatography. Flash chromatography has become a popular method of normal phase separation through purification.

Without a doubt, life science technologies are providing valuable information and have become the core that discovery relies upon. Life science instruments are used predominantly by four industrial segments, which include academia, biotechnology, government, and pharmaceutical research labs. Due to the amount of money being spent, these industrial segments are under pressure to deliver exciting new discoveries.
