How Does the GC-MS System Help my Workflow?

A joint study between Selçuk University (Konya, Turkey) and Hitit University (Corum, Turkey) determined the natural occurrence and concentrations of the mycotoxins ochratoxin A (OTA) and deoxynivalenol (DON) in commercially available tortillas in Turkey. Contamination levels were quantified using validated analytical methods based on high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with fluorescence or ultraviolet detectors (HPLC-FLD or HPLC–UV).

In episode #37 of Analytically Speaking, podcast host Dr. Jerry Workman speaks with Dr. Austin Daniels, application scientist for Yokogawa Fluid Imaging Technologies, about flow imaging microscopy (FIM), a new technology for sub-visible particle characterization in biologics.

To better conduct the analysis of nucleoside analogues, hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS) was used to quantify antitumor prodrugs and their metabolites.

A study from Justus Liebig University Giessen presents a novel, cost-effective method for evaluating the safety of personal care products using high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) combined with planar bioassays.

A new cancer detection test to analyze volatile organic compounds through urine analysis, was granted the Breakthrough Device Designation status by the U.S. FDA. The system, which is built on gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and proprietary AI, generates real-time cancer risk scores.
