The last decade has seen a series of advances in the field of liquid chromatography tha t have resulted in improvements for many clinical diagnostic services. These innovations have included the expansion of superficially porous particle columns, new or improved stationary phase options, and user-friendly multiple-channel high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument options tha t allow sequential analysis-- a boon for low- and moderate-throughput laboratories with limited hardware. As a result, diagnostic services are able to offer faster turnaround times and measure analytes in patient types and disease states tha t were previously problematic. This article presents examples of the impact these innovations have had in a number of hospital settings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
