Chromatography and mass spectrometry tools for agricultural chemical analysis and research

We’ll discuss a wide variety of gas chromatography (GC)‒ and liquid chromatography (LC)‒based mass spectrometry tools that enable the reliable detection, quantification, and identification of low concentrations of LC- and GC-amenable chemical residues and contaminants, even in complex matrices. The webinar will also showcase GC and LC workflow solutions that support regulatory compliance for pesticides.

The content is relevant for a wide audience, including those with interest in routine high-throughput analysis, nonpolar and/or polar ionic analytes, targeted and/or nontargeted approaches for known and unexpected analytes, method development, compound discovery, metabolite profiling, metabolomics, and more. This webinar covers advanced tools that help solve food and environmental analytical challenges—from sample preparation to MS determination, data processing, and reporting results.
