Determination of multiclass cyanotoxins in blue-green algae (BGA) dietary supplements using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

In recent years, the consumption of blue-green algae (BGA) dietary supplements is increasing because of their health benefits. However, cyanobacteria can produce cyanotoxins, which present serious health risks. In this work we propose hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled with tandem … Continue reading

Sweeping-micellar electrokinetic chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry as an alternative methodology to determine neonicotinoid and boscalid residues in pollen and honeybee samples.

In this work, it is proposed for the first time an electrophoretic approach based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MEKC-MS/MS) for the simultaneous determination of nine neonicotinoids (NNIs) together with the fungicide boscalid in pollen and … Continue reading

High-throughput methodology for the determination of carbamates in food supplements by UHPLC–MS/MS.

Food supplements are increasingly consumed products that claim to have several benefits for health. In many cases, these supplements contain herbal products and, as a consequence, can be contaminated with pesticides used in crops. This study aimed to use a … Continue reading
