Pesticides – Products

Managing pesticides is imperative for us to preserve human and environmental health. Gas chromatography has quickly become the technique of choice to identify and quantify a diverse set of pesticides with high sensitivity.

Metrohm USA is pleased to announce the winner of its 2023 Young Chemist Award, Manish Samson, an undergraduate student at The University of Texas at Dallas, Department of Bioengineering in the Biomedical Microdevices and Nanotechnology Laboratory under Dr. Shalini Prasad.

Waters Corp introduces Glyphosate-V, the world’s first lateral flow strip test for fully quantitative detection of Glyphosate in grains and water samples, at The International Production and Processing Expo.

Element Materials Technology has unveiled one of the first and largest post-pandemic, commercial bioaerosol testing facilities.

Concern about trace-level food contaminants is driving the demand for robust, rapid and reliable methods for identification and quantitation of chemical residues and contaminants in food matrices.

Laboratories performing environmental, food and biopharmaceutical testing can now increase productivity, reduce errors and minimize personnel time and solvent use with a new, all-in-one, automated chromatography sample preparation system.

There is a growing demand for more rapid methods with maintained robustness and chromatographic performance for the identification and quantitation of chemical residues in food analysis.

The increasing global demand for food has led to a growing use of pesticides, resulting in elevated risks of trace level chemical pollutants in food. Rapid and reliable methods are required to identify and quantify these pollutants with high sensitivity and over a wide dynamic range.

Since there are no federal regulations for pesticide analysis in cannabis, individual states have developed their own regulations outlining the list of pesticides to monitor and the maximum residue limits or acceptable limits for each pesticide.

Ensuring food safety and quality is increasingly challenging. Whether you're analyzing for pesticide residues, ensuring that label claims are correct and accurate, or profiling for food authenticity, you need a system that delivers low detection levels and high sensitivity.
