Canada Banned Bisphenol A

Canada again is the leading nation in reacting on scientific evidence for a severe impact of Bisphenol A (BPA) for human and environmental health. Dionex, a company focused on scientific analysis instruments, announced the availability of a fast and accurate screening method for the toxic substance. more14.10.2010

Determining Saccharidic Tracers in Atmospheric Aerosols

Atmosperic aerosols have a strong impact on the climate. Within the organic aerosol fraction, anhydrosugars and sugar alcohols are valuable tracers for biomass burning and biogenic sources. They are best determined by ion chromatography coupled to pulsed amperometric detection. Sample preparation merely involves a simple water extraction. Detection limits are in the ng/m3 range. more30.09.2010

Finding a Cure for Spinal Cord Injury

Traumatic injury to the central nervous system (CNS) usually results in irreversible loss of function. Consequently, individuals with injured spinal cords can be permanently paralyzed. This function loss occurs because of the death of nerve cells and their support cells as well as the severing of very long processes that transmit electrical signals from one nerve cell to others. Transected CNS axons do not re-grow or reestablish connections with their targets. more03.09.2010

Ultra-High LC Performance for all Users

For decades, HPLC has been one of the most important techniques available to analytical chemists. However, despite the maturity of the technique, there continues to be a great deal of scientific research in improving selectivity and efficiency, and in providing the maximum analytical information in the shortest time possible.   more
