Green analytical chemistry has garnered significant interest given the heightened focus for organizations to decrease their environmental footprint. Of the analytical methodologies, those involving separation science (chromatography, extractions, crystallization, etc.) tend to be the most detrimental to the environment as they require large volumes of solvent. Chromatographic methods can be made significantly greener while preserving their...

Chromatography Data Systems (CDSs) have become a prerequisite for laboratories that perform regulated testing for quality control and pharmaceutical development or manufacturing. While they play a crucial role in helping organizations assure regulatory compliance; the fact that the data is locked inside them, is an ever-increasing frustration. Particularly, with the advent of data-hungry AI/ML projects....

Scientists at Merck published an article about using ChromGenius to predict retention times of new compounds. Abstract We introduce a new workflow that relies heavily on chemical quantitative structure-retention relationship (QSRR) models to accelerate method development for micro/mini-scale high-throughput purification (HTP). This provides faster access to new active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) through high-throughput experimentation (HTE)....
