Glyphosate is a broad-spectrum herbicide widely used around the world. Monitoring of glyphosate in crops and water is mandated in many countries.

Voglibose is an Alpha-Glucosidase inhibitor widely used for the treatment of diabetes. Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors are agents that delay the glucose absorption at the intestinal level and thereby prevent sudden surge of glucose after a meal. Voglibose is the safest and most effective drug of its class.

Aminoglycoside antibiotics are among those commonly used in animal feeds to manage intestinal microorganisms. The beneficial effects include improved growth and generally healthier animal populations. Use of antibiotics creates a demand for analytical procedures to verify concentrations in pre-mixes and feeds and in some instances for residue analysis in animal products.
