Acquisition of a LCMSMS (uHPLC – triple quadrupole MS system)

DTU requires a new liquid chromatograph–mass spectrometer (LC-MS/MS) instrument. The instrument will be used for screening and quantification of small organic compounds (e.g. pesticides, veterinary drug residues, nitrosamines) in different food and environmental matrices (meat, fish, sludge, food contact materials, etc.). For some compounds like steroids sensitivity is very important. On the other hand the ability to detect many analytes (> 400) with one injection is important for multi-analyte meth-ods like pesticides.
