During RAFA 2015, New Food Magazine hosted a roundtable (sponsored by SCIEX) to bring together experts with routine food testing backgrounds to discuss the latest industry trends, challenges, recent technological advances, and expectations of future laboratories.
Both Vincent Paez, Senior Director of Food Testing and Andre Schreiber, Technical Applications Manager from SCIEX were in attendance and contribute with their extensive experience of working with and supporting routine testing laboratories, as well as developing advanced workflows on the forefront of food safety.
The roundtable began with a simple question, “In the next 10 years what key changes do you see happening in the food and beverage industry in terms of food analysis?” A detailed discussion followed which covered the aspects of commercial laboratory testing, university laboratory research, the rise of digital technologies and the simplification of processes – in particular, the importance of informatics.
If you are interested in learning more about what each of the speakers had to say we have embedded the full 51-minute roundtable for you to watch below.
Be sure to leave a comment below and share your thoughts on the questions asked as part of the discussion, or raise any questions you would like to be included in future roundtables!

Produced by certain moulds, thriving in crops such as grain, nuts and coffee, mycotoxins have contaminated agriculture and food production industries for a long time. To intensify the challenge, mycotoxins are resilient, not easily broken down and ensuring the safety of food supply chains requires comprehensive solutions and we are here to share those solutions with you.
Electron-Activated Dissociation (EAD) is transforming the fields of metabolomics and lipidomics by providing enhanced fragmentation techniques that offer deeper insights into molecular structures. In September, Technology Networks hosted a webinar, “Enhancing Mass-Based Omics Analysis in Model Organisms,” featuring Dr. Valentina Calabrese from the Institute of Analytical Sciences at the University of Lyon. Valentina shared her insights on improving omics-based mass spectrometry analysis for toxicology studies using model organisms, particularly in metabolomics and lipidomics. This blog explores the additional functionalities EAD offers, its benefits in untargeted workflows, its incorporation into GNPS and molecular networking, and the future role it could play in these scientific domains.
Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) has gained significant attention in the clinical laboratory due to its ability to provide best-in-class sensitivity and specificity for the detection of clinically relevant analytes across a wide range of assays. For clinical laboratories new to LC-MS/MS, integrating this technology into their daily routine operations may seem like a daunting task. Developing a clear outline and defining the requirements needed to implement LC-MS/MS into your daily operations is critical to maximize the productivity and success of your clinical laboratory.
