Professor Erich Leitner from Graz Univeristy of Technology in Austria will share his knowledge of wine profiling and how GC/GCMS as analytical tool can help identify the origin of different wines in this upcoming webinar.
In this study, various types of malted rice sake, made from the same manufacturer are analysed for a total of 97 hydrophilic metabolites (e.g. amino acids and organic acids).
In this article, metabolomic profiles of beer were studied and determined using a triple quadrupole GCMS (GCMS-TQ8040) enabling characteristic compounds (e.g. saccharides) to be identified for some types and brands of beer.
This article introduces the use of both LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS for targeted metabolomic profiling of wines.
This application note examines the metabolomic profile of curries prepared at different locations (i.e. 2 different home locations and a cafeteria) and also investigates the metabolomic changes when the curries were left overnight.
Professor Erich Leitner from Graz University of Technology in Austria is a leading expert on food quality and was recently interviewed about his current research. He is a major figure in the local food network, having strong relations with local...
This application note will help you learn how to efficiently determine theanine in various teas using the latest Shimadzu’s Nexera™ Series and explore the use of the series' auto pretreatment function for sample derivatization purposes.
This application note will help you learn more about the rapid pre-column derivatization method for amino acid analysis and explore the automatic pretreatment function of of Shimadzu’s Prominence™-i integrated LC system.
This application note will help you explore the use of the Nexera™ Dual Injection System for the simultaneous run of two independent analyses in a single sample injection. Furthermore you will learn how to determine food constituents and evaluate...
In this application note you will find out how Shimadzu Nexis™ SCD-2030’s redox cell gives higher speed and sensitivity for the analysis of sulfur compounds. In addition you will learn how to determine trace levels of sulfur compounds in various...
The increasing complexity of the food supply chain, the exponential growth of chemical hazards and their regulations have brought several challenges to the field of food safety. This webinar will demonstrate how the use of ultra fast spectrometry...
Shimadzu has produced an application note demonstrating an example of batch analysis of highly polar pesticides using SFC that may be effective for analyses for which retention and separation are difficult in LC.
In this application note an optimised LC-MS/MS method for the detection of 18 regulated mycotoxins is presented.
This application note describes the use of Shimadzu's LCMS-8060 Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer for the analysis of 212 veterinary drug residues.
