Food Analysis

In this presentation, the new XEVO TQ GC, GC-MS/MS system is introduced and a sensitive, multi-class method for the routine determination of pesticide residues in QuEChERS extracts of various fruit and vegetables is described. 

This application note from PerkinElmer details an effective, reliable and robust LC-MS/MS method, using time-managed MRM (Multiple Reaction Monitoring) transitions, for the monitoring of mycotoxinsin multi-grain and corn cereals at low µg/kg levels,...

In this application note Agilent describes the mass-based purification of natural product impurities using an Agilent 1260 Infinity II Preparative LC/MSD System.

In this technology brief from Waters see how the Xevo™ TQ-GC can produce consistent results for pesticide analysis over an extended period of time, without the need for intervention by the user.

In this study, Water demonstrates how product ion information can be used simultaneously with MRM acquisition to provide additional compound information and aid in the verification of results.

Waters describes a simple method demonstrating how its Quanpedia™ Database can simplify GC-MS/MS method development and analysis in food and environmental laboratories.

Waters has produced a poster describing GC-MS/MS pesticide analysis in green tea using targeted MRM and full scan analysis in a single acquisition.

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.

Do you need help with establishing food authenticity? If so, elemental profiling using ICP-MS, ICP-OES, and MP-AES could be the answer as an approach for geographic authentication of various foods and beverages. Learn more by watching the following...

In this application news from Shimadzu, laser diode thermal desorption (LDTD) was coupled with an LCMS-8060 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (LDTD-MS) to conduct high-speed analysis of melamine in powdered milk.

Shimadzu has produced an application note describing a method that enables rapid analysis of drug residues with the LCMS-8050 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer.

In this study from Thermo Fisher Scientific the performance of an enhanced sensitivity triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS was evaluated using both solvent standards and food/foodstuff samples for the analysis of PCDD/Fs to satisfy regulatory requirements.
