This webinar explores the ability of gas chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (triple quadrupole GC-MS) to analyze pesticides in food products.
The event will then discuss the pesticide outcomes of JEOL USA’s honey, spinach, and kale experiments using samples gathered from apiaries and grocers.
Main Learning Objectives:
- Learn about how TQ GC-MS/MS identifies pesticides
- How to apply a pesticide approach to kale, honey, spinach, and other foods

About the Presenters
Dr. Jensen started at the Colorado School of Mines in 2008 for his graduate studies, studying mass spectrometry under Dr. Kent Voorhees.
His dissertation included developing an LFI strip to detect Bacillus anthracis using bacteriophage amplification, analyzing NPAHs in biofuel combustion, and multivariate statistical analysis of MOLI mass spectral data of various bacteria for identification.
In December 2014, he received a PhD in Applied Chemistry from the Colorado School of Mines. He then took a research scientist position at Osaka University and, after two years, was promoted to assistant research professor. In 2019, he started as an applications chemist at JEOL USA, Inc. His recent projects involve the JMS-TQ4000GC triple-quad mass spectrometer.
