Sentence examples similar to multi target method from inspiring English sources

A multi-target method for the determination of 191 fungal metabolites in almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts and pistachios was developed.

This number was expected since a multi-target method covering a huge number of chemically diverse analytes always has to be a compromise.

Furthermore, it is the first time that a multi-target method is capable of determining all mycotoxins regulated in the European Union for maize [ 3– 6].

Based on an HPLC-MS/MS multi-target method developed previously by our group [ 4, 7], a new UHPLC-MS/MS method was developed on an Agilent 1290 Infinity UHPLC system coupled to a 6460 Triple Quadrupole mass spectrometer.
