Advanced Routine Method for the Analysis of Pesticide
Residues by LV-PTV
The development of advanced methods in
pesticide residue screening is an enormous
challenge. The scope of pesticides that require
monitoring is growing parallel to the scope of
matrices that are being investigated. The
regulation authorities are continuously
lowering the limits of detection whilst the
economic pressure for commercial as well as
governmental laboratories is increasing. Thus
more efficient multi residue methods are
essential. However, accuracy and reliability of
the analytical results can not be sacrificed
during this optimisation process.
Traditional instrumentation and methods are
limited in fulfilling all these necessities. Modern
instrumentation such as fast/low resolution
