Title of Method
Multiplexed LC-MS method for the detection and quantitation of selected food allergens
AOAC Candidate Method
Number (e.g. ALN-01)
ALL-02
Applicable SMPR
Yes
Summary:
The method submitted is a LC-MS/MS method for the multiplex detection and
quantitation of milk, hazelnut, peanut and egg in different food matrices. The method
proposed is based on protein extraction and subsequent digestion with three
proteolytic enzymes (pepsin, trypsin, chymotrypsin); the final digest is partly purified
before HPLC separation and MS/MS detection. The method was run on three different
MS instrument: 2 triple quadrupole Mass Spectrometers in MRM mode and on a Q-
TOF MS (selecting the precursor ion)
