Method development and applications of LC-MS/MS in forensic analysis

Toxicity testing, substance detection, and trace analysis are all done with LC-MS. Toxins in various materials can be measured with LC-MS using a limited amount of sample. LC-MS may be used to identify any harmful metabolites in food or beverages. As an example, Analyzing the juice and detergent sample allows for the identification of detergent applied to orange juice. The surfactant alkyl diphenylether sulphonic acid is used as a standard. In the same chromatographic conditions, juice and detergent samples are analysed.
