Uwe Karst of the University of Münster took time at Analytica 2024 to talk about the session he's chairing, as well as detail the future of imaging and other trends in analytical chemistry.
At the University of Münster, Professor Karst is the Chair of Analytical Chemistry, a position he has held since 2005. He has authored more than 350 publications in peer-reviewed scientific journals.
Karst’s research interests are liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS), with particular focus on the simulation of oxidative metabolism reactions based on the analysis of non-polar analytes by means of LC–MS and speciation analysis using LC with electrospray- and inductively coupled plasma–MS (ICP-MS).
In this video interview, Karst answers the following questions:
Using Thermostable Raman Interaction Profiling (TRIP) For Protein Binding Screening
March 1st 2024Narangerel Altangerel, Zhenhuan Yi, and Marlan Scully of Texas A&M University recently used TRIP to analyze eight protein–ligand systems. Spectroscopy recently spoke to these three researchers about their findings and what the implications are for high-throughput drug screening.
Synthesizing Synthetic Oligonucleotides: An Interview with the CEO of Oligo Factory
February 6th 2024LCGC and Spectroscopy Editor Patrick Lavery spoke with Oligo Factory CEO Chris Boggess about the company’s recently attained compliance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) Expert Working Group (Q7) guidance and its distinction from Research Use Only (RUO) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 13485 designations.
Reviewing the Impact of Raman Spectroscopy on Crop Quality Assessment: An Interview with Miri Park
February 1st 2024Miri Park of the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety, and Energy Technologies is examining how Raman spectroscopy could aid non-destructive sensing in agricultural science. Recently, Park sat down with Spectroscopy to discuss micro-Raman spectroscopy's role in assessing crop quality, particularly secondary metabolites, across different contexts (in vitro, in vivo, and in situ), while suggesting future research for broader application possibilities.
Inside the Laboratory – The Petrochronology Group at University of California, Santa Barbara
January 29th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” John Cottle, PhD, a professor of geology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and a member of Spectroscopy’s Editorial Advisory Board, discusses his group’s most recent work using “laser ablation split steam” analysis to measure elemental concentrations and isotopic ratios in rocks and minerals.
