Overcoming Practical Challenges of Pesticide Residue Analysis

Overcoming Practical Challenges of Pesticide Residue Analysis Through Integrated Technology and Workflow Solutions One of the biggest challenges in ensuring the safety of our food supplies is the measurement of hazardous, ultra trace level components in the presence of a highly complex sample matrix. For the analysis of pesticides in food matrices the increased use of liquid chromatography systems coupled with tandem quadrupole mass spectrometers has allowed progress in reducing the problems caused by the sample matrix. This talk will focus on an integrated workflow for multi-residue pesticide analysis in complex matrices. The ability to understand the matrix challenge of each injected sample is clearly beneficial, as is the ability to monitor changes in the sample matrix between samples and batches. Integrating an effective workflow can lead to the continuous improvement of productivity and analytical quality in the laboratory. Discussions will include method development / optimization by automating set up of the MS hardware (mass resolution, mass calibration, ion source optimization) as well as the process of developing compound-specific MRM data acquisition methods.
