In this study, Thin Film Solid Phase Microextraction (TF-SPME) with a divinylbenzene/polydimethylsiloxane coating (DVB/PDMS) was used to extract off-odor compounds from paper product samples. The use of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry directly coupled with olfactory detection...

MCPD and Glycidol and especially their fatty acid esters are process contaminants that are formed, for example, when edible oils and fats are refi ned.

In-time TMS Derivatization and GC/MS Determination of Sugars, Organic Acids and Amino Acids for High Throughput Metabolomics Studies.

Synthetic cathinones (also known as Bath Salts) are a group of drug compounds designated as Novel Psychoactive Substances (NPS). They are unregulated, mind-altering substances with no actual approved medicinal use.

In this document we describe a method developed to quantify persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in-cluding polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in dietary sup-plements using stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE)-GCMS/MS-isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS). This method enables accurate, precise, and sensitive quantification of POPs in plant-extract based dietary supplement products commercially available in the United States. When compared with calibration curves, IDMS provided more accurate and precise measurements. The mean error of measurements using this method was 7.24% with a mean RSD of 8.26%.

Stir Bar Sorptive Extraction (SBSE) coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and olfactory detection (GC-MS/O) allows for separation and identifi cation of aroma compounds in complex sample matrices with minimal sample preparation time.

Plastics, micro- and nanoplastics pollution in oceans, lakes and other water sources is a well-documented issue. Uptake of these particles by shellfish and fish is one avenue for the pollutants to enter the food chain and cause possible adverse effects.

The manual preparation of calibration standards and QC samples is part of the daily activities of laboratories that analyze food samples for contaminants. The accurate and precise transfer of liquid standards and solutions is critical for ensuring the validity of the analytical results.

The number of cannabis containing products, such as extracts, tinctures, edibles, waxes and oils, available in the United States have increased significantly due to changes in state law and the 2018 Farm Bill.
