Hollow, pumpkin-shaped molecules can efficiently separate valuable hydrocarbons from crude oil, KAUST researchers have shown.

A new, fast, and automated sample pretreatment technique for determination of lipophilic organic compounds in aqueous samples has been developed and applied to the determination of polychlorinated ...

Recent efforts in single-cell research call for precise liquid level detection (LLD) for end-effectors to manipulate small volume of liquid samples such as nano- to pico-liter droplets. Existing LLD ...

Compared to solid-to-solid inertial switches, the devices based on liquid-to-solid contact can avoid the signal bouncing and contact wear caused by the rigid contact between the proof mass and the ...

Chemical separations are an important part of an undergraduate chemistry curriculum. Sophomore students often get experience with liquid–liquid extraction in organic chemistry classes, but ...

Coupling liquid chromatography with supercritical fluid chromatography has emerged as the most effective approach for analyzing neutral molecules in complex samples.
