Solutions for the Fight Against Food Fraud
Food fraud, loosely defined as the deliberate misrepresentation of a product to a consumer for the purpose of monetary gain, has become an increasing problem in the global marketplace. See how applications chemists at LECO's Life Science and Chemical Analysis Centre use GC-TOFMS and GCxGC-TOFMS technology to analyze complex food samples, helping to identify individual analyte differences and detect food fraud.
