Roundtable: how should we be doing dioxin and POPs analysis?

Dioxin testing moves forward. Put your questions to our technical experts for Dioxins and POPs analysis in this roundtable webinar.

Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS has long been recognized as the instrumentation for meeting worldwide regulations and compliance. However, techniques such as GC-MS/MS or GC Orbitrap MS provide an alternative instrumental approach to this challenging application. As laboratories strive for high throughput, increasing scope of analysis and reduced cost of ownership, it is important to consider the merits and limitations of all three approaches for various sample types and performance criteria.

Join us (virtually) for an insightful roundtable webinar in which our applications specialists will discuss their experiences and answer your questions.

What you will learn:

• Latest Thermo Scientific™ technology and analytical solutions for regulatory dioxins analysis
• Regulations and challenges of dioxins analysis
• Top tips on method set up and data review
• Comparison of performance and benefits of each approach

Who should attend?

• Analytical chemists focussed on food and contaminants analysis including dioxins/POPs
• Laboratory managers and supervisors
• Research chemists

You can submit your questions anytime in advance via email to [email protected].
