Bridging Exposomics and Metabolomics in a Single LC-MS Run
Biomonitoring of toxicants like pesticides and PFAS in humans is essential for understanding how chemical exposure affects our health, yet chemical coverage is currently limited with targeted LC-MS approaches.
Untargeted data acquisition, however, is emerging as a promising tool for broader chemical coverage and understanding the possible outcomes of chemical exposure on human health.
In this webinar, our expert speaker will discuss how a new method with sequential acquisition of targeted and untargeted data can be used to analyze the exposome and the metabolome in a single LC-MS run, providing greater insights into the effects of chemical exposure.
Attend this webinar to:
- Find out about the benefits of sequential targeted and untargeted data acquisition in a single LC-MS run
- Understand how high sensitivity and broad chemical coverage can be achieved simultaneously for performing exposomic and metabolomic experiments
- Discover a novel method that can be tailored for many different applications in the field of small molecule omics
Presenter: Dr. Vinicius Verri Hernandes (Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Vienna)
Vinicius obtained his degree in Chemistry followed by a Master in Analytical Chemistry in 2013 from the University of Campinas in Brazil, with focus on mass spectrometry. He later started a joint PhD program between the same university and the Centre for Excellence in Metabolomics in Bioanalysis in Madrid, Spain, working on multiplatform metabolomics on dried blood spots. From 2018 to 2022 he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the European Research Academy (EURAC) in Bolzano, Italy, being responsible for targeted and untargeted data generation for 5000 samples from the CHRIS populational study. Currently at the University of Vienna, Vinicius focus his work on the combination of targeted and untargeted approaches for exposomics and metabolomics, as well as in the development of analytical workflows for exposure analysis on dried blood spots.
