AN73854: Determination of Chlorate and Perchlorate in Powdered Infant Formula using Ion Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Be the first to rate this application

Description

Food can be contaminated by chlorate and perchlorate during different stages of production. Recent reports by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), found that current levels of chlorate in drinking water and in foods were too high and could negatively impact iodine uptake especially among infants and children. This method uses a Dionex™ IonPac™ AS20 column set, on a compact IC system (Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Integrion™ HPIC system) coupled with a Thermo Scientific™ ISQ EC™ single quadrupole mass spectrometer to determine chlorate and perchlorate in powdered infant formula.
