Studying Protein Expression in Crop Development
As the need for improvements in the yield, insect resistance and abiotic stress tolerance of crop plants continues to increase, Gia C. Fazio and colleagues Wayne Skinner, Zina Dahmani, Yingzhi Lu and Jean C. Kridl have collaborated on a paper that describes the use of liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) to quantify the expression of levels of a transgenic protein, barley alanine aminotransferase, across multiple rice lines. LCGC asked Fazio about her work on the project. More... |
LGC and HFL gear up for the Olympics
After five weeks and visits to ten science centre zones across Europe, Merck HFL Sport Science (HFL), a part of the LGC Group (Teddington, Middlesex, UK) and one of the world’s largest sports drug surveillance laboratories, is preparing for its role testing the horses competing in equestrian events at the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

 A New Scientific Information System for Efficient Pesticide Residue Screening at Regulatory Limits in Food Samples
This technology brief demonstrates the functionality of the Waters’ Pesticide Screening Application Solution with UNIFI™ for the routine detection, quantification, and reporting of pesticide residues at the relevant regulatory limits in complex food matrices. The UNIFI Scientific Information System uses the accurate mass of both precursor and fragment ions, isotopic pattern and intensity, and retention time information to reliably detect and confirm pesticide residues while minimizing false positive and negative results (≤5%), in accordance with EU guidelines.
