Continual advances in the analysis of chemical residues in foods:  Are methods finally good enough?

Research Interests:
Since 1992, scientific investigations and method development research have involved improvement in the analysis of pesticides, veterinary drugs, and other contaminants in food and environmental samples.  Research has addressed all aspects of the analytical process, including sample processing, preparation, separations, detection, screening, quantification, identification/confirmation, and data processing using many types of analytical techniques applied in novel and useful ways.
