Separation science
The research is focused on new instrumental techniques for the analysis of complex chemical mixtures found in the environment, in industry, in food and in living systems. A common challenge is to design equipment and methods to analyse compounds (typically toxins) at lower concentrations, more reliably, in less time and at lower cost. The complexity of samples generally requires one or more chromatographic separation steps followed by in-line spectrometric detection to achieve the necessary specificity for correctly identifying and quantifying compounds of concern. Areas of application include: air and water pollution, clinical diagnostics, occupational health, essential oils, flavours and fragrances, industrial process control and forensic analysis
