Inlet Liner, Direct (SPME) Type, Straight Design (unpacked)

Various plastics used as barriers to the production of off-flavors in light exposed milk were examined using HS-SPME with a new Carboxen®/PDMS coated Nitinol fiber followed by GC-MS analysis allowing detection of low MW analytes at levels <1 ng/mL.

Bisphenol A (BPA) plastic is controversial in food and beverage containers. This study demonstrates SPME of BPA from an energy drink using an overcoated PDMS/DVB fiber, followed by GC/MS/MS analysis using SLB-PAHms GC Column.

Terpenes are present in essential oils derived from plants and often impart characteristic aromas to the plant or its oil. The SPME is a convenient, efficient, and easy to automate sample preparation technology for analyzing the terpene/terpenoid profile of these plant materials.

The use of solid phase microextraction (SPME) allowed for the straightforward, fast, sensitive, and accurate GC/MS determination of the residual solvent content of spiked and unspiked samples of hemp extract.

Bisphenol A (BPA) is suspected to be an endocrine disruptor. Regulations on specific migration limits (SML) from food contact materials are getting tighter (EU 2018/213) requiring more sensitive determinations. An overcoated SPME fiber provides the durability necessary for direct immersion into foods such as canned soup and pumpkin, allowing for low level analysis of BPA via SPME-GC-MS/MS.
