Shifting the Paradigm in GC-MS Pesticide Analysis

There is growing interest in the use of gas chromatography–high resolution, accurate mass (HRAM) mass spectrometry for the non-targeted screening of pesticide residues in food. This approach is now enabled by the improved full scan performance of the latest GC-HRAM systems. It is now possible to analyze targeted, suspected, and unexpected pesticide residues in a single workflow with an easy-to-use GC-MS system that provides an unprecedented level of performance in routine analysis.

Join Prof. Fernandez-Alba, who will share his thoughts on the performance of GC-HRAM technology including the ease of use, performance, and effectiveness of the GC-MS system and intelligent software for the analysis of pesticides in fruit and vegetables. 

Amadeo Fernandez-Alba is a Full Professor in Analytical Chemistry at the University of Almeria, Spain. Since 2006 he has been the Head of the European Reference Laboratory for Pesticide Residues in Fruits and Vegetables (EURL-FV eurl-pesticides.eu). His EURL responsibilities include building the network of official laboratories, providing assistance and training to National Reference Laboratories (NRLs), developing methods for pesticide residue analysis, organizing EU Proficiency Tests, drafting and updating the EU guidelines (SANTE/11945/2015) on method validation and quality control procedures for pesticides residues analysis in food and feed. He serves on many national and international committees and has contributed to 24 book chapters and authored and co-authored more than 260 scientific publications.
