Facing the Analytical Challenges of Pesticide
Residue Analysis—Unknowns, Difficult Pesticides/
Matrices and High Resolution MS
The session comprises of world experts who are at the
forefront of modern pesticide residue analysis. The
audience will learn about their experiences such as
utilization of liquid chromatography-high resolution mass
spectrometry to identify and quantitate unknown pesticide
residues, analytical approaches to address difficult
pesticides and matrices, and protocols in the development
and validation of multiresidue pesticide procedures.

Hot Topics in Metals Analysis
In this session the speakers will cover a variety of hot
topics in metals analysis. The issues covered will include:
Arsenic (As) in wine: In March 2015, a class action lawsuit
was brought against more than two dozen wineries
concerning levels of arsenic, a known carcinogen, that
exceeded the drinking water standard for arsenic of 10
parts per billion (ppb or µg/L). An update on As totals and
speciation methods for detection in wine will be presented.
Nickel in foods: a wide variety of food commodities is
proposed for monitoring starting in 2016 and going on until
2018 for Codex.
Cadmium in Coca: Proposed draft maximum levels for
cadmium in chocolate and cocoa-derived products in
the EU will be discussed, as well as methods used for its
detection.
HOT TOPIC #4: So new, we have to wait for its press
release before being able to add to this abstract.
This AOAC session would like to address these pressing
issues with experts from government, industry, and
academia sides. We will cover the methods that are
currently being used, and the current regulations in the
U.S. and around the world.

Hot Off the Press in Metals Speciation Analysis
Recent Advances in Environmental Testing of
Foodborne Pathogens
Recent foodborne outbreaks highlighted the critical
importance of effective environmental sampling and
testing methods to enhanced food safety. Foodborne
pathogens colonized in food processing facilities have
been indicated as the primary source of contamination in
final food products linked to many foodborne outbreaks and
cases. Effective environmental sampling methods could
facilitate not only the outbreak traceback, but also the
development of preventive control strategies.
Foodborne pathogens in environmental samples could
be heavily injured and high levels of background flora
are usually present. In addition, mixed strains of the
same species could be present in the same facility. All
these factors pose challenges to the detection of target
pathogens in environmental samples, especially when
traditional microbiological methods for food analysis
are employed.
