Protocols

Bisphenol A (BPA) is suspected to be an endocrine disruptor. Regulations on specific migration limits (SML) from food contact materials are getting tighter (EU 2018/213) requiring more sensitive determinations. An overcoated SPME fiber provides the durability necessary for direct immersion into foods such as canned soup and pumpkin, allowing for low level analysis of BPA via SPME-GC-MS/MS.

This application demonstrates the suitability of Ascentis Express C18 for the efficient separation of milk thistle related compounds
