Meeting the Upcoming European Commission Performance Criteria for the Use of Triple Quadrupole GC-MS/MS as a Confirmatory Method for PCDD/Fs in Food and Feed Samples
Description
Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) constitute a group of highly toxic organic compounds. PCDD/Fs have been characterized by the US Environmental Protection Agency as likely to be carcinogenic to humans. Recent technological advances in GC-MS/MS technology led to GC-MS/MS being considered a reliable tool that can be used to control the maximum levels for PCDD/Fs in food and feed. In this work, the performance of the Thermo Scientific TSQ 8000 Evo triple quadrupole GC-MS/MS for the analysis of PCDD/Fs was assessed.Market: | Food and Beverage |
