Workflow Solutions
Separation and
Detection: Analyze
Separation and detection of
the diverse molecular species
in complex foods requires
using gas chromatography
(GC) often coupled with mass
spectrometry. Analysis using
GC with mass spectrometric
detections provides RT
information and a second
dimension of separation
based on an analytes’ mass-
to-charge ratio.
Sample Preparation: Extract
Sample preparation is the first and most critical step
in achieving quality results in food testing by removing
unwanted matrix components, and enabling clean
downstream separations and detections.
Data Analysis: Report
Data must be substantiated with
careful analysis, which leads to
increased overall productivity,
including efficient data evaluation
and interpretation of results
