Provided herein are methods for high throughput quantitation of testosterone utilizing at least two different derivatizing agents of different masses. In another aspect, provided herein are methods for determining the amount of testosterone in each of a plurality of human samples with a single mass spectrometric assay by subjecting each of a plurality of human samples to a different derivatizing agent to generate a differently derivatized testosterone in each of the plurality of samples; combining the plurality of samples to form a multiplex sample; and quantifying the amount of testosterone in each sample by mass spectrometry.

The invention provides methods for microbial bioburden reduction of various chromatography matrices, including bioburden reduction in the context of large-scale Protein A-based affinity chromatography columns.

This invention employs columns and methods to apply external and internal standards and compounds. Analytical standard or compounds are adsorbed to a solid phase extraction media and are stored indefinitely. The standards or compounds remain stable on the solid phase extraction media without decomposing. The standards or compounds may be removed from the solid phase extraction media with a solvent.

The present disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing multi-capillary lining that can serve as a chromatographic column, and to the multi-capillary packing obtained by such a method.

A gas chromatograph includes a sample introduction unit configured to introduce a vaporized sample into a separation column together with a carrier gas, a detection unit configured to detect a gas emitted from the separation column, and a catalyst processing unit. The catalyst processing unit includes a catalyst configured to introduce a gas containing the carrier gas discharged from the sample introduction unit or the detection unit to oxidize the hydrogen gas.
