CHROMtalks - Optimization of GC-based Hyphenated Techniques in Food Analysis

Hyphenated chromatographic techniques have significantly contributed to revealing the complexity of food matrices. Among these, GC-based methods - whether coupled with other GC techniques, for example, GC-GC or GC×GC or with LC, for example, LC-GC or LC-GC×GC, or separative detectors such as mass spectrometry - offer crucial support in ensuring food safety and quality. Their main strengths lie in the ability to perform both targeted and untargeted profiling with high sensitivity and detail. This presentation will guide the audience through the practicalities of using multidimensional separations, and how to optimize, a still simple method to obtain highly informative chromatograms by coupling multiple chromatographic separation methods.
