FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT: Dipankar Ghosh, Director – Food & Beverage Technologies 408-242-8585, dipankar.ghosh@thermofisher.com Shimadzu 11:15am – 11:45am | Governor’s Square 10 The Fight Against Mineral Oil—Better Insights with Advanced Analytics The discussion of mineral oil residues in food is well known in the scientific community since the early 1990s but was brought to a broader audience through the last years. In general public it is widely supposed that the source of mineral oil residues derives mainly from food contact material made from recycled materials, but in fact numerous other contamination routes exists. State of the art is a fully automated combination of online LG-GC with flame ionization detection, which allows automated analysis at high sample through put and additional clean up steps.
