The elimination of micro-organisms to the point at which they are no longer detectable in standard media culture, is a basic and essential process within the fields of pharmaceutical manufacturing, research and in health care organisations. The process within which this is carried out is sterilisation, of which there are various forms, but perhaps the most prominent of these is steam or moist heat sterilisation. Neville J. Mitchell reports.

One of the most measured chemical parameters is pH. Currently, the glass electrode is commonly used. However, especially in the food industry, risk of breakage limits the usability of glass electrodes. Based on the ISFET principle, microchip technology now enables the design of robust, glass-free pH electrodes, which enables safe, reliable pH measurement. IJcke Schaepman reports.

One of the essential steps in sample preparation prior to injection for HPLC is filtration of the sample. Filtering the sample through a syringe filter with a 0.45µm microporous membrane filter will remove particulates that can cause premature instrument failure.
Sample filtration helps to protect the various components of an HPLC system, simplifies instrument maintenance, and prolongs the life of the instrument as well as expensive analytical columns.
The accuracy and reproducibility of results are improved, since the injection port and instrument are protected by filtering.
