Assessing human exposure to pesticides and mycotoxins: optimization and validation of a method for multianalyte determination in urine samples.

Humans are exposed to an increasing number of contaminants, with diet being one of the most important exposure routes. In this framework, human biomonitoring is considered the gold standard for evaluating human exposure to chemicals. Pesticides and mycotoxins are chemicals … Continue reading

Ion mobility-mass spectrometry to extend analytical performance in the determination of ergot alkaloids in cereal samples.

This work evaluates the potential of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) to improve the analytical performance of current liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) workflows applied to the determination of ergot alkaloids (EAs) in cereal samples. Collision cross section (CCS) values for EA … Continue reading
