The Use of LC-MS/MS for the Analysis of Allergens in Foods
6 Mar 2015This poster present the first ever allergen method, incorporating diverse allergens such as mustard, tree nuts, milk and gluten, which represent over 16 separate species from different allergenic groups. The work was designed to test the feasibility of developing a screening method which covered several classes of allergens using a single extraction, sample preparation and LC-MS/MS method.

LC-MSLC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) systems and equipment are used for separation and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures, combining liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. Quantify proteins, contaminants, pesticides or screen for drug metabolites with a high level of sensitivity. LC-MS systems and equipment include reverse phase, normal phase and specialized columns integrated with various MS detectors such as time-of-flight (TOF), quadrupole, orbitrap or ion trap mass analyzers. LC-MS/MS instruments equipped with a qTOF or triple quadrupole analyzer give greater sensitivity and resolving power to your analysis.
