- A study at the University of Georgia presents a method for quantifying terpenes in Cannabis sativa essential oil, supporting therapeutic and industrial applications.
- Researchers from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine and Virginia Commonwealth University explore the effects of Duodenal Mucosal Resurfacing using advanced UHPLC-MS/MS techniques.
- The University of Valladolid in Spain develops a sustainable approach using HS-SPME-GC-QTOF-MS for analyzing biogenic volatile organic compounds emitted by Spanish trees, emphasizing green sample preparation.
LCGC International featured articles this week on various topics related to separation science and green chemistry trends. The partnership between BASF and Mingyang was highlighted as they collaborate on Power-to-X (P2X) solutions to advance the application of green hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol in China. This partnership aims to develop advanced materials and technologies for sustainable purposes in different industries. The University of Georgia presented a study on quantifying terpenes in Cannabis sativa essential oil using GC-MS, supporting both therapeutic and industrial applications of these compounds. Another article discussed Duodenal Mucosal Resurfacing (DMR) and its impact on diabetes control using UHPLC-MS/MS techniques. The study aimed to investigate the mechanisms by which DMR enhances metabolic disorders in type 2 diabetes patients. Additionally, researchers from the University of Valladolid in Spain developed a sustainable approach for analyzing biogenic volatile organic compounds emitted by Spanish trees. They utilized HS-SPME-GC-QTOF-MS for green sample preparation, emphasizing environmental sustainability in analytical processes.
