Liquid chromatography has become a cornerstone of forensic science, making it indispensable for addressing diverse analytical challenges, from estimating time of death to identifying emerging synthetic drugs. LCGC International highlights the work of three scientists working in the field: Ida Marie Marquart Løber, J. Tyler Davidson, and Walter B. Wilson. Løber explains how UHPLC–QTOF-MS and machine learning (ML) can assist in postmortem interval (PMI) estimation, Davidson contributes his work on structural characterization of nitazene analogs via LC–ESI-MS/MS fragmentation profiling, and Wilson addresses the persistent challenge of distinguishing hemp from marijuana by chromatographic means: https://lnkd.in/ewG7UHrv

Gas chromatography (GC) techniques are increasingly central to forensic chemical analysis. LCGC International has spotlighted the work of three researchers who are working in this exciting field: Petr Vozka, Ira Lurie, and Darshil Patel. Vozka investigates time-dependent chemical changes in latent fingerprints using GC×GC–TOF-MS; Lurie explores flip-flop chromatography and GC–VUV for drug isomer resolution; and Patel examines VOC transitions from life to death via GC×GC–TOF-MS: https://lnkd.in/erMze9vx

Michael Bartlett, Torgny Fornstedt, and Mark Dickman discuss the reasons why ion-pair reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (IP-RP-HPLC) has risen to such prominence for the separation of oligonucleotides: https://lnkd.in/eRrgFbwt
