Are you looking for ways to up the ante on your LC-MS/MS when it comes to food testing? Researchers here have developed a method for the analysis of approximately 400 pesticides in food samples, and their work is available for viewing in this year’s compendium. This application note is just one of 16 you will find under Pesticides >
Using your QTRAP® LC-MS/MS System at its Full Potential OverviewUsing MRM mode, the QTRAP® 6500 LC-MS/MS was used to quantify hundreds of pesticides in food samples with high selectivity and sensitivity. Identification was further confirmed using MRM ratio identification. An alternative approach for compound identification went beyond the detection of multiple fragments.
Details of ExperimentTwenty pesticides were spiked into different food samples, and diluted extracts were analyzed using two methods.
Results and ConclusionsImproved data processing using a dual injection approach with automatic quantitation, identification, and confirmation using MasterView™ and MultiQuant™ Software. Results highlight the complementary nature of MRM ratios and MS/MS full scan offering a possibility of confirmatory analysis.
For more than 20 years, the CDCO has supported academic, commercial, and not‑for‑profit drug discovery programs with deep expertise in pharmaceutical lead optimization. Within the bioanalytical group, their role is to enable rapid and reliable decision‑making through quantitative analysis of candidate drugs in biological matrices.
PFAS are increasingly at the center of regulatory change, scientific research, and industry discussion worldwide. As analytical capabilities improve and expectations around environmental responsibility continue to evolve, understanding the role PFAS play, and how they are being addressed, has never been more important. This blog provides an overview of what PFAS are, why they matter, and how responses from regulators and industry are changing.
Pesticides are widely used in agriculture to protect crops and maintain yield, but their presence in food must be carefully monitored. To safeguard consumers, regulatory authorities worldwide set maximum residue limits (MRLs), often at very low concentrations and across a wide range of compound classes.
