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.
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.
Whether we are raising glasses of rosé in a vineyard in France or enjoying a lager in a casual street restaurant in China, it is likely that the last thing on many people’s minds is the chemical risks from their beverage. Unless you work in food science, then it might actually be the first thing.
As PFAS regulations tighten globally, laboratory managers are navigating a complex economic landscape. Whether operating in a commercial or non- commercial setting, the pressure to deliver accurate, defensible, and timely PFAS data is mounting. At SCIEX we understand that the right technology can turn this regulatory challenge into a strategic opportunity.
