ACS Omega, November 2021

Cannabis aroma is so complex, the volatile organic compounds responsible for its characteristic ‘skunk-like’ smell have eluded researchers until now. A recently published paper describes the discovery of a new family of volatile sulfur compounds in cannabis, which were proved to be responsible for its pungent aroma, using two-dimensional gas chromatography.

LCGC: The Column, July 2021

This article shows how the comprehensive data acquired using GC×GC–TOF MS with Tandem Ionisation^® can be processed in a single, automated workflow to uncover the subtle differences between brand and imitation fragrances for quality and authenticity evaluation.

LCGC: The Column, February 2021

This article demonstrates how high-capacity sorptive extraction with trap-based focusing, coupled with enhanced separation by two-dimensional chromatography (GC×GC) and identification by time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF MS), gives greater insight into the aroma profiles of curry powder.

Scientific Reports, October 2020

A new paper describing how thermal desorption coupled with two-dimensional gas chromatography–time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TD–GC×GC–TOF MS) was used to determine the effects of cold storage on the volatile aroma compounds of different peach cultivars.

Analytical Chemistry, August 2020

A paper published in Analytical Chemistry demonstrates a new feature in the ChromSpace^® software platform for multi-dimensional gas chromatography.

LCGC: The Column, August 2020

This article discusses how two-dimensional GC (GC×GC) coupled with mass spectrometry can be used to profile cannabis terpenes with enhanced separation, resulting in the confident identification of terpenes and improved flavour interpretation.

LCGC Europe, May 2019

A new article on the comprehensive fingerprinting of volatiles in food – “Capturing the Signature of Quality” – has been published in the May edition of LCGC Europe magazine.

The Analytical Scientist, July 2017

Tandem Ionisation is the focus of an article published in The Analytical Scientist that explains how this technology was developed and ultimately commericalised for the BenchTOF series of time-of-flight mass spectrometers that we at SepSolve offer as part of our product range.
