Ochrana spotřebitelů závisí na transparentním a důvěryhodném označování potravin. Přestože tři desetiletí výzkumu ukazují, že nízké expozice alergenům pravděpodobně nevyvolají reakci u většiny alergických osob, stále existuje potřeba harmonizovaných mezinárodních pravidel.

Rostoucí komplexita obalových systémů, zpřísňující se legislativa a narůstající počet sledovaných látek vyžadují nové analytické strategie pro ověřování jejich bezpečnosti.</p><h5><strong>Data-driven strategies to reduce complexity in non-target HRMS analysis of food samples</strong></h5><ul><li>Anneli Kruve, Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden</li></ul><p>Necílený screening pomocí LC/HRMS dokáže odhalit stovky až tisíce chemických signálů.

SLE requires fewer steps and less method development compared to SPE. For most samples that can be processed by liquid-liquid extraction, SLE can usually be used to provide cleaner and faster solvent partitioning. Historically, to get the cleanest SLE extracts, halogenated solvents like dichloromethane were used for elution of target analytes from the sorbent. A supported liquid extraction (SLE) approach that produced clean extracts with high recoveries and low matrix interferences using ethyl acetate, a more sustainable organic solvent, will be presented. Results for steroids, methylmalonic acid (MMA), and underivatized estrogens in human serum, in addition to optimized LC-MS/MS conditions and LC column considerations, are also discussed.</p><h4><strong>Key Learning Points</strong></h4><ul><li>Discover how SLE provides clean extracts for LC-MS/MS quantitation at low concentrations.</li><li>Describe conditions for the extraction and analysis of MMA from human serum.</li><li>Define method parameters for low-level quantitation of estrogens without derivatization.</li></ul><h4><strong>Who Should Attend</strong></h4><ul><li>All clinical, CROs, and forensic/toxicology analysts using LC/MS-MS.</li></ul><blockquote><p><strong>Presenter: </strong>Stephanie J Marin (Sr. Global Market Development Manager - Applied Markets, Phenomenex)</p><p>Stephanie J.
