APPLICATION BENEFITS Mycotoxins are toxic compounds produced by fungi that are harmful to humans and animals. Patulin, found in rotting apples, is a compound that is regulated in many countries. Food safety testing for patulin is crucial to limit exposure; however, many sample cleanup methods do not remove closely related compounds, which can lead to false positive results.

Introduction
Since 1970, glyphosate has been used as a systemic, non-selective herbicide in public and residential areas and as a crop desiccant. With the development of genetically modified organism (GMO) crops resistant to glyphosate, its usage increased drastically with a 15–fold jump of the quantity used between 1995 and 20141, to become one of the world’s most widely used herbicides.

INTRODUCTION
A general liquid hand領 application is to use a liquid handler as an autosampler for a spectrophotometer. The traditional manual method for fil領 a flow-through cuvette is to use a peristaltic pump (a sipper) to draw the sample through the cuvette. This can easily be replicated using a Gilson GX liquid handler. [詳細]
INTRODUCTION
Preparative LC coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) is a well-established method for purifying target compounds. The VERITY? 271 LCMS system (Figure 1) leverages the separating power of HPLC with the detection capabilities of MS to isolate fractions with high purity and achieve excellent recovery for target molecules. The system incorporates signal data from both ultraviolet (UV) and mass-based detectors. [詳細]
INTRODUCTION
Liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LCMS) is widely used in both analytical and preparative chemistry applications. In this process, compounds in a complex mixture are separated based on their size or chemical properties using LC, and the mass signal from the MS detector is used to confirm compound identity and trigger fraction collection. [詳細]
APPLICATION BENEFITS
The necessity to perform purification with subsequent analysis via HPLC to determine the composition of collected fractions consumes scientists’ time and money. Utilization of multiple instruments often requires the user to learn multiple software applications. This causes scientists to spend more time learning software functionalities, and less time applying their knowledge to scientific discoveries.[詳細]
