TOF-MS Video

Joining us from the University of Messina, Mariosimone Zoccali, Assistant Professor of Analytical Chemistry, present on 'Boosting Food Analysis Using GCxGC-ToFMS. In his talk, Prof. Zoccali explores the pioneering applications of Comprehensive Two-Dimensional Gas Chromatography coupled with Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry in the analysis of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), measured on our newly released Pegasus BTX GCxGC-ToF MS. He shows how this advanced technique provides insights in both targeted and non-targeted analyses , offering deeper understanding into EVOO's chemical profiles. Dr. Zoccali highlights how GCxGC-ToF MS enhances the detection of contaminants and key compounds, such as antioxidants and sterols, which are essential for assessing quality, authenticity and flavor.

Dr. Heather Bean (Arizona State University) discusses using GCxGC-TOF MS to detect and phenotype infections directly from lung samples.

When you don't know what you're looking for, as is often the case with environmental contaminants and pollutants, the task can seem daunting, but high-resolution TOFMS and GCxGC is a powerful combination for non-target searches. With the tools included with the Pegasus® HRT4D and the Multi-Mode Source™ (MMS™), identification of unknowns can be vastly improved and assigned higher confidence.
