Episode 2: Chromatography in Action: From PFAS Research to Sheep Welfare at UNR

In this episode of "Concentrating on Chromatography," host David Oliva explores diverse applications of chromatography and mass spectrometry with researchers from the University of Nevada, Reno. The discussion covers a range of topics, including: PFAS research and thermal destruction processes Short-chain fatty acid production in gut microbiomes using GC-MS Cortisol analysis in sheep wool for welfare studies using ELISA The versatility of university core laboratories in supporting various research projects Listeners will gain insights into cutting-edge research methodologies, sample preparation techniques, and the critical role of chromatography in environmental science, microbiology, animal welfare, and beyond. This episode highlights the interdisciplinary nature of analytical chemistry and its impact on addressing real-world challenges.
