Regulations that set the maximum residue limits of pesticides in food matrices present significant analytical challenges due to low limits of quantitation required in these complex matrices.
This application note describes a multi-residue analysis method that uses the Thermo Scientific™ TSQ Quantis™ triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, Thermo Scientific™ Pesticide Explorer Collection Standard Quantitation solution, for rapid and robust quantitation of more than 250 pesticides below their MRLs with sensitivity, accuracy and precision that meets stringent EU guidelines.
