A Complete Solution from Welch Materials for the Determination of Neotame in Food
Neotame is a food additive widely used in various food products. Due to its potential adverse effects, its use must comply with the maximum usage limits and permitted categories specified by relevant regulations. In this article, we introduce our solution using SPE-HPLC and SPE-LC-MS/MS, based on the Chinese national food safety standard GB 5009.247-2025. -
Chirality in Chromatography: How HPLC Distinguishes Left-Handed and Right-Handed Molecules
Chirality, the handedness in chemistry, can mean a significant difference between life-saver and toxicity. In this article, we not only explore how chiral HPLC separates enantiomers with its unique three-point interaction mechanism, but also briefly introduce five brand new chiral stationary phases in Blossmate Chiral series, greatly expanding Welch Materials' chiral chromatography solutions. -
Меры предосторожности при использовании сахарных колонок Уэлча
The sugar column used in carbohydrate and sugar analysis has different operational precautions than other commonly used chromatographic columns. Many users, even after reading the product manual, still have difficulties on how to properly activate, use, and store them. In this article, we break down the details of using sugar columns -
Determination of Cereulide in Infant Formula and Rice Cereal by SPE-UHPLC-MS

Maximizing Longevity: Five Practical Ways to Extend HPLC Column Life
An HPLC column is a high-cost core consumable in laboratories, and improper handling and operational errors contribute to column degration. In this article, we introduce five foundational rules that safeguard your HPLC columns and explain the reason behind it. -
Advanced Chromatographic Resolution of Chiral Compounds, Part V: APIs
More than half of APIs contain chiral centers, which may hinder drug activity if not separated. In this article, we use Blossmate chiral columns to separate five distinct APIs with their enantiomers, showcasing the columns' capability in such applications. -
A Comparison of Welch Ultisil Columns on the Isomeric Separation of Anthraquinones
Isomer separation is one of the most challenging tasks in chromatography. In this article, we evaluate the chromatographic performance of three Welch Materials’ Ultisil stationary phases—PFP, Alk-C18, and XS-C18—on the separation of isomeric derivatives and analogs of antharaquinone. -
Advanced Chromatographic Resolution of Chiral Compounds, Part IV: Herbicides
Herbicides are an essential tool in weed management, and chirality greatly affects their efficacy. In this article, we explore the chiral separation of two herbicides: 2-(2-chlorophenoxy)propanoic acid and dimethenamid, using Welch Blossmate chiral columns. -
Dedicate or Share? Maximize Your HPLC Column Use
In laboratory analysis, it is common to encounter scenarios where a column loses efficacy after being used in a different project, or where dozens of projects must be conducted by a small amount of columns. In this article, we explore the balance of dedicated and shared HPLC column use to ensure reliable analytical results while maximizing available resources.
