LCGC TV: Rudolf Krska on Mycotoxin Analysis with LC–MS
Mycotoxins are an important group of secondary metabolites produced by fungi that can cause disease in humans and animals. Active in the field of mycotoxin analysis is Rudolf Krska from BOKU, IFA-Tulln in Vienna and in this video he discusses his work investigating the human metabolism of Fusarium mycotoxins and gives his view on the future direction of mycotoxin research. |

MS — The Practical Art: Quantifying Small Molecules by Mass Spectrometry
The use of a mass spectrometer in quantitative analysis exploits its exquisite selectivity and sensitivity as a detector, allowing a signal to be ascribed to a particular chemical entity with high certainty, even when present in a sample at a low concentration. There are, however, some special considerations that are necessary when a mass spectrometer is used as a quantitative tool. In this installment, we discuss the general precepts of quantitative analysis, as well as the concept of "fitness for purpose," in the context of those considerations. |

The LCGC Blog: Sweating the Small Stuff
In this new entry, LCGC blogger Tony Taylor outlines some “small bolts” that are commonly ignored in everyday chromatography and mass spectrometry — instrument settings that he has come to call “lock and leave” parameters. We can generate data without changing them or paying them any attention, but how much better could our data be if we bothered to optimize them. |
