Using a "Total Workflow" Sample Prep Approach to Optimize Elemental Analysis
July 27th 2023In this article, readers will learn about the significance of adopting a "total workflow" approach to sample preparation in elemental analysis and how it can improve various aspects of the process. Additionally, readers will gain practical advice on avoiding workflow disruptions that can hinder laboratory performance and goals.
New Regulatory Requirements for Measuring TiO2 in Foods
July 13th 2023Food manufacturers must ensure that TiO2 is within safe levels and correctly listed on a product label. However, measuring TiO2 in food products presents some challenges for the analysis via common atomic spectroscopy. Titanium dioxide may also be present in foods as nanoparticles, which requires specialized measurement techniques if the nanoparticles are to be quantified separately. Agilent is developing the measurement methodology to help manufacturers meet these new regulations.
