A major new study from the United Kingdom finds conclusive evidence that organic crops, and the food made from them, are nutritionally superior to their conventional counterparts, corrects many of the shortcomings of earlier studies and should put to rest any doubts about the benefits of organic, said the lead scientist of The Organic Center in responding to the landmark study.

This application note from Waters discusses a UPC² method that was successfully developed to separate the three most common carotenoids in less than two minutes.

The UPC²/MS FFA analysis described here provides a simple and fast method with a significant reduction in analysis time compared to alternative techniques such as GC/MS, which requires FAME derivatization.
