Expert Insight: Upcoming FREE Webinar: Simultaneous Quantitative Determination and Screening of Pesticides in Fruits and Vegetables using LC-Q-Orbitrap-MS

28 Nov 2014

Register for this FREE SelectScience webinar on December 10th 2014 to learn how the LC Q-Orbitrap-MS enables simultaneous quantitative and qualitative analysis of pesticide residues in foodstuffs.

The analysis of pesticide residues can be very challenging due to the high number of substances (>500) that could be present. It is important to quantify known associated pesticides using analytical quality control (AQC), as well as detecting any additional pesticides.

In this webinar, learn how the Thermo Scientific LC-Q-Orbitrap-MS enables you to integrate both aspects into one measurement for a more efficient workflow. The favored combination of full scan and vDIA (variable Data Independent Acquisition) will be demonstrated. Dr Hans Mol (Senior Scientist, RIKILT Wageningen UR) will describe targeted and non-targeted acquisition modes of the Q-Orbitrap-MS and efficient methods of data analysis. The quantitative and qualitative performance evaluation is in accordance with the EU guidelines for validation and AQC (SANCO/12571/2013), thus demonstrating that this new technology is fit for purpose.

The webinar will take place on December 10th 2014 at December 10th 2014 at 08:00 PST / 11:00 EST / 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET
