Atmospheric Pressure Ionization GC Coupled to Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry for the Analysis of Agricultural Residues in Food Safety

In this poster, APGC coupled with a QTof was used to analyze a mixture of chlorinated pesticides spiked into orange oil. Fruit flavorings, like orange oil, are wide used in the food and beverage industry. Agricultural residues may be present in the original fruits at trace levels which can be amplified when oils are extracted and concentrated from the fruit.
