Event Overview:
Food safety testing is paramount for ensuring the quality and integrity of agricultural products and processed foods. Analytical laboratories testing food products are challenged with diverse sample matrices and testing methodologies. Therefore, laboratories must have robust and efficient sample preparation processes that produce high-quality analytical performance. This webinar focuses on sample preparation workflows for homogenization, liquid extraction, extract cleanup, and solvent evaporation. We examine physical and chemical parameters used for sample processing in the analysis of food contaminants such as pesticides, PFAS, mycotoxins, and more. Additionally, we discuss the benefits of process miniaturization for improved throughput without compromising precision, accuracy, and reporting limits. This webinar equips analytical laboratories with practical tools and solutions to enhance their food safety testing.

Dispersive Solid Phase Microextraction for Detecting PAHs in Juice and Water
August 29th 2024Dokuz Eylul University scientists tested dispersive micro solid-phase extraction (D-µSPE)’s effectiveness for detecting polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in fruit juice and environmental water samples.
Analytical Challenges in Measuring Migration from Food Contact Materials
November 2nd 2015Food contact materials contain low molecular weight additives and processing aids which can migrate into foods leading to trace levels of contamination. Food safety is ensured through regulations, comprising compositional controls and migration limits, which present a significant analytical challenge to the food industry to ensure compliance and demonstrate due diligence. Of the various analytical approaches, LC-MS/MS has proved to be an essential tool in monitoring migration of target compounds into foods, and more sophisticated approaches such as LC-high resolution MS (Orbitrap) are being increasingly used for untargeted analysis to monitor non-intentionally added substances. This podcast will provide an overview to this area, illustrated with various applications showing current approaches being employed.
