Introduction Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by fungal molds on food crops. Regulation and legislation for testing of mycotoxin contamination have established which mycotoxins are prevalent ...

QuEChERS is a sample preparation technique commonly used in food safety testing for pesticide residue analysis. This two-stage extraction and clean-up technique was developed to streamline sample proc...

Introduction Patulin is a mycotoxin produced by aspergillum and penicillium mold species commonly found on rotting apples. Although not a particularly potent toxin, patulin has been shown to be genoto...

Introduction The method described in this application note achieves high recoveries of acrylamide in fried potato chips (crisps). The method is sensitive enough to measure levels as low as 10 ppb in a...

Introduction The method described in this application note achieves high recoveries of acrylamide in coffee. The method is sensitive enough to measure levels as low as 1 ng/mL in coffee (solution), 25...

Extraction protocols and analytical methods have been utilized and revised for detecting Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in aqueous matrices since 2013. The toxicity and persistence of PFAS ...
