The Journal of Separation Science focuses on the development and application of analytical techniques for the separation, identification, and quantification of chemical compounds. Recent articles highlight advancements in liquid chromatography (LC), mass spectrometry (MS), and hyphenated techniques like LC-MS and UHPLC-MS/MS for analyzing complex biological, environmental, and pharmaceutical samples. Methodologies often involve sample preparation techniques such as solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid-liquid extraction, with an emphasis on improving sensitivity, selectivity, and efficiency for trace analysis.
