In this study a method was successfully developed for the  quantitation of 210 commonly analysed pesticides in food samples using the Nexera UHPLC and LCMS-8040. Initial  validation was performed to demonstrate instrument capabilities. These are the articles selected by Shimadzu for this issue. The articles are from application notes relating to Food  safety and Environment with a variety of ins
