You have questions, we have answers! Check out our most commonly asked food testing questions.
I am looking to switch my pesticide methods from GC-MS to LC-MS, what do you recommend?FSMA mandates a “science-based” approach to food testing. This does not require that Chromatography be used, but in practice, much of the modernization of food testing methods has been driven by the use of new and improved chromatographic . . . |
GC applications for fatty acids are run on either an FFAP phase or on a low polarity phase. Why is this?Short chain fatty acids can be separated on a Zebron ZB-FFAP column, which will provide a unique selectivity and good peak shape. . . |
What kind of analytes is roQ™ QuEChERS suitable for?QuEChERS was originally developed to simplify the analysis of pesticides in food matrices. It can be used for any analytes which partition into acetonitrile rather than water. In practice, this means any analytes with a log P value of greater than 1. |
