Extractables and Leachables in Food Contact Material
"Extractables and leachables" is a common label for contaminants originating from food or medical packaging. Understanding the risks these contaminants may pose relies on the ability to detect and quantify them. A prerequisite however, is the need to characterize the relevant chemicals.
By viewing this webinar you will:
- Get background information on food packaging materials and regulations
- Gain insight to method details and the role method parameters play into analytical success
Discover:
- How sensitivity of the new SCIEX Triple Quad™ 7500 LC-MS/MS System - QTRAP® Ready can benefit you when detecting and quantifying compounds that might leach into food
- Other techniques used for targeted and unexpected analysis using quadrupole time-of-flight technology (QTOF), data independent acquisition, and customizable spectral libraries, allows for a deep dive into screening extractables and leachables
The presentation is ideal for:
- Laboratory scientists and QA/QC managers working in the food and beverage
- Those involved in method development, interested in implementing and optimizing food contact material applications
- Those interested in the analytical methodology aspects of extractables and leachables should attend
