Detection of residual ethylene oxide and epichlorohydrin in foodstuffs using automated multi-step enrichment–headspace–trap with GC–MS/MS
Application Note 290
High-throughput analysis of EtO and ECH in food using automated headspace–trap GC–MS/MS
This application note showcases an automated GC–MS/MS method for detecting ethylene oxide (EtO) and epichlorohydrin (ECH) in challenging food matrices at levels 10× below typical EU residue limits.
Using Centri with headspace–trap and multi-step enrichment, the method removes the need for manual QuEChERS extraction thereby streamlining workflows and boosting throughput in high-volume testing labs.
