Using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography high resolution tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC–HRMS/MS), researchers at Wageningen Food Safety Research, part of Wageningen University & Research (The Netherlands)identified methyl 2-(sulfo-oxy)benzoate as a novel biomarker that differentiates pharmaceutical from plant-derived salicylic acid in eggs.

The Saint Peter Saint Paul archipelago (SPSPA), situated in the central Equatorial Atlantic, approximately 1000 km from the northeastern coast of Brazil, has become the habitat of choice for a small population of common bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) that exhibit a strong site loyalty to the remote archipelago.

With the 2026 conference season approaching, now is the perfect time to consider the value of face-to-face scientific exchange. Chromatography continues to evolve at a rapid pace, driven by digitalization, AI‑enhanced workflows, green chemistry initiatives, and complex regulatory demands. Staying ahead requires immersion in the global conversation, and the best place to do that is still in person. This year, two events stand out for chromatographers worldwide: Pittcon and analytica.
