Learn how automation helps food testing laboratories address evolving regulatory requirements, achieve lower LOD/LOQ targets through effective sample clean-up, and analyse novel foods and other complex matrices.
Food and feed testing laboratories are under growing pressure to analyse more samples, across a wider range of matrices, while meeting tighter regulatory requirements and lower detection and quantification limits.
Effective sample clean-up is critical to achieving reliable results. Matrix effects can compromise the sensitivity and accuracy of mycotoxin analysis, while different tablet formulations and encapsulations create further challenges for vitamin extraction and clean-up. As testing volumes increase, laboratories must also maintain reproducibility, traceability and data quality without allowing manual preparation to become a bottleneck.
This webinar explores how immunoaffinity column clean-up can address these challenges and how established manual methods for mycotoxins and vitamins can be transferred onto an automated liquid handling platform.
Drawing on collaborative application data and customer examples, the speakers will show how automated clean-up can deliver results comparable to established manual methods, examine performance across complex food, feed vitamin and nutraceutical matrices, and demonstrate how multiple protocols can be completed within a single automated run.
Attendees will gain practical insight into increasing sample throughput, improving consistency and developing more flexible, scalable clean-up workflows without compromising analytical performance.
