Let's Talk Polar Pesticides

Let your polar pesticides be our problem!

Polar pesticides, the most widely used group of agrochemicals in the world, are few of the most challenging compounds to be determined by analytical methods. So, laboratories, tasked with detecting and characterizing polar pesticides in diverse samples, had to work with complex individual or group methods with time-consuming derivatizations.

This is exactly what we aim to address through this exclusive Deminar “Let’s Talk Polar Pesticides”.

During this Deminar, our speakers will take you through the various aspects of the Polar pesticides problem, from regulatory guidelines to workflow solutions, live from Agilent Lab.

The topics address the following aspects for the Analysis of Polar Pesticides in Food:

• FSSAI/EU guidelines and DG/SANTE
• Specific analytical challenges to the analysis of Polar pesticides
• Detailed workflow solution using Agilent LC-MS/MS
• Sensitivity and matrix-based linearity in accordance with EU norms
• Virtual Demo from Agilent Lab including actual sample preparation (with recovery experiments at LOQ level) and the final data as acquired in Agilent COE on actual samples

What You will Learn

• LCMS based analysis of Polar Pesticides without derivatization.
• Learn how to adreess peak tailing and sensitivity issue
• Analysis of difficult food matrices such as cereals and tea.

Who should attend?

Lab directors, managers and mass spectrometry analysts performing small molecule analysis in food
