Solid-Phase Extraction in Food Lipid Analysis
Scientists from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (Uppsala, Sweden) and the University of Tabriz (Tabriz, Iran) developed a single-step solid-phase extraction (SPE) method to completely separate sterol oxidation products in food lipids.
Scientists from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (Uppsala, Sweden) and the University of Tabriz (Tabriz, Iran) developed a single-step solid-phase extraction (SPE) method to completely separate sterol oxidation products in food lipids. The method used 1 g of silica and could be used for both transesterified and cold saponified oil samples. They tested the method and applied it to the analysis of various vegetable oils and to monitoring hazelnut oil production. Further analysis was performed by gas chromatography (GC) and GC–mass spectrometry.
Study Explores Thin-Film Extraction of Biogenic Amines via HPLC-MS/MS
March 27th 2025Scientists from Tabriz University and the University of Tabriz explored cellulose acetate-UiO-66-COOH as an affordable coating sorbent for thin film extraction of biogenic amines from cheese and alcohol-free beverages using HPLC-MS/MS.
Multi-Step Preparative LC–MS Workflow for Peptide Purification
March 21st 2025This article introduces a multi-step preparative purification workflow for synthetic peptides using liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS). The process involves optimizing separation conditions, scaling-up, fractionating, and confirming purity and recovery, using a single LC–MS system. High purity and recovery rates for synthetic peptides such as parathormone (PTH) are achieved. The method allows efficient purification and accurate confirmation of peptide synthesis and is suitable for handling complex preparative purification tasks.
