An Improved QuEChERS Method for UPLC-MS/MS Determination of Multiresidue Mycotoxins in Grains

An Improved QuEChERS Method for UPLC-MS/MS Determination of Multiresidue Mycotoxins in Grains

22 Dec 2015

Mycotoxins are toxic compounds produced by molds or other fungi that can grow on foodstuffs intended for domestic animal or human consumption. Ingestion of food containing part-per-billion concentrations of some mycotoxins may cause severe illness. In this poster, an evaluation of the QuEChERS method is presented for the determination of mycotoxins in whole grain wheat, maize and rice flours.

ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 and C8 Columns

Waters

ACQUITY UPLC® BEH C18 and C8 columns were designed to be the universal columns of choice for most UPLC® separations by providing the widest pH range.They incorporate trifunctional ligand bonding chemistries which produce superior low pH stability and ultra-low column bleed. This low pH stability is combined with the high pH stability of the 1.7 µm BEH particle to deliver the widest usable pH operating range. In addition, these new chemistries also utilize new, proprietary endcapping processes which produce outstanding peak shape for bases. These bonding chemistries and particle synthesis innovations produce the sharpest peaks, highest efficiencies and maximum MS sensitivities.
