Researchers from Corteva Agriscience tested a new approach for separating and quantifying small molecule structure elucidation.

A pair of scientists from Gdańsk University of Technology (GUT) in Gdańsk, Poland, used the method to analyze the presence of antibiotics in animal products like milk and eggs.

Brazilian scientists are testing a system to detect endocrine disruptors in wastewater samples to help improve public health.

Optimal reaction conditions for the desired deethylation were found to be mild, using only water and oxygen at or close to ambient temperatures.

There are many benefits of using high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) in analyzing PFAS accumulating in living organisms. This article shows how HRMS, when combined with exposure-relevant mixtures, can help elucidate more about PFAS toxicity and exposure.

The investigation of airborne PFAS transmission is important in preserving the outdoor urban environment. The authors explain why GC–MS/MS and LC–MS/MS are the best techniques for analyzing airborne PFAS.

This instalment of “Column Watch” presents many of the highlighted topics and trends observed at this exceptionally well-run symposium.

To gain a better understanding of phosphatidylinositols, scientists used different LC–MS/MS techniques to find classifications to use in identifying further species of Pls.

Increases and decreases in anthocyanin concentration, which relates to the level of sugars found in red wine, were observed at specific weekly intervals of the grape ripening process.

Trypsin is one of the most commonly used proteases in peptide mapping protocols because of its high level of specificity. However, trypsin alone is not always sufficient for full sequence coverage. In this article, the authors detail how trypsin was combined with chymotrypsin to overcome this, and the benefits of an automated platform.

An overview of different approaches for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of polysorbates.

Plant growth regulators (PGRs) have significant effects on plant physiological processes, but the complex matrices of plants, along with polarity and instability issues inherent with PGRs, complicate trace analysis of these compounds.

Sauce-flavor or sauce-aroma baijiu, one variant of a popular Chinese liquor, is treated with a fermentation starter called daqu, giving the concoction a unique taste profile, and scientists want more information about how it can inform the manufacturing of higher-quality baijiu.

Among the compounds of concern found in the samples were nicotine-related alkaloids, psychoactive cannabinoids, and chemicals that promoted inflammation of the respiratory system.

While both branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) and straight-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) were analyzed, the profiling of BCFAs was considered especially important for future metabolomics and lipidomics studies.
