Glyphosate is a polar pesticide widely used as a garden herbicide. It is an ingredient in the world’s bestselling weed killer, which farmers consider one of their best solutions to their super weed problems.
However, the chemical has become one of the most controversial topics as concerns about health implications increase. What’s more, lack of rigorous testing methods has also drawn criticism. Yet, regulators across seem to have differing opinions on these issues and its widely used in farming is still authorized.
Many contemporary methods fail to address reproducibility and sensitivity. Consequently, labs are seeking even more efficient and robust analytical testing methods to help identify as many polar pesticides in food, feed, and environment, within in a single analysis.
There are 2 constraints you need to know need when evaluating glyphosate testing methods:
The good news? SCIEX has teamed up with NofaLab, a Rotterdam-based contract testing laboratory to develop a non-derivatized method.
This new method, is based on ion chromatography and optimized on the SCIEX 6500+ QTRAP® LC-MS/MS System, has high sensitivity, linearity, and reproducibility for food, feed, and water samples.
Download a content pack to learn more about this robust and sensitive method and how you can stay ahead of your glyphosate analysis. The content pack includes:
With the launch of the ZenoTOF 8600 system, EAD has taken a significant leap forward in becoming a routine tool for metabolomics and lipidomics workflows. Building on the foundation laid by the ZenoTOF 7600 system, the 8600 system introduces enhanced sensitivity, function speed improvements, and multimodal capabilities that make EAD more practical and scalable for daily use. This blog explores how these advancements are transforming EAD from a specialized technique into a robust and accessible solution for high-throughput structural analysis, enabling researchers to unlock deeper insights with greater efficiency.
In your lab, time is not just a resource. It’s a necessity and every moment counts. Yet, unplanned downtime can disrupt this delicate balance. Even a brief interruption can set your team back in multiple ways.
In a recent webinar, which is now available on-demand, Holly Lee powerful strategies to tackle complex residue testing. From boosting throughput to fine-tuning method sensitivity, Holly shared key ways to maximize performance across large pesticide panels.
