LogP vs LogD – What is the Difference?

Bara Townsend Jul 11, 2024

LogP and logD are important values to consider during the drug design process as both give insight to the lipophilicity and hydrophilicity of compounds.

Modifying current thin-film microextraction (TFME) solutions for analyzing prohibited substances: Evaluating new coatings using liquid chromatography

ACDLabs Jan 4, 2022

For identifying and quantifying prohibited substances, solid-phase microextraction (SPME) continues to arouse interest as a sample preparation method. However, the practical implementation of this method in routine laboratory testing is currently hindered by the limited number of coatings compatible with the ubiquitous high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) systems. This evaluation enables selection of the best-performing coatings...
