Researchers from the Technical University of Denmark and (Lyngby, Denmark) and the Danish Meat Research Institute (Roskilde, Denmark) used a mixed-mode reversed phase?anion exchange cleanup method followed by LC-MS with electrospray ionization time-of-flight detection to analyze mycophenolic acid in dry-cured ham, fermented sausage, and liver pate.
Researchers from the Technical University of Denmark and (Lyngby, Denmark) and the Danish Meat Research Institute (Roskilde, Denmark) used a mixed-mode reversed phase–anion exchange cleanup method followed by LC-MS with electrospray ionization time-of-flight detection to analyze mycophenolic acid in dry-cured ham, fermented sausage, and liver pate. The mycophenolic acid, a compound used an immunosuppressant in organ transplantation, was first extracted from the meat with a bicarbonate–acetonitrile solution.
RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
