Analysis & Examination

 
Agricultural chemical residue analysis laboratory
 


Analysis laboratory
In cooperation with Shimadzu Corporation, a leading manufacturer of analytical instruments in Japan, we have set up a laboratory equipped with analyzers to check agricultural chemical residues in tea. We perform strict quality checks on all the materials before shipment in order to ensure only 100% chemical-free teas will be provided to our customers.



Instruments used for analysis

Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS)

◎Model Gas Chromatograph GC-17A
◎Analysis method Mass Sspectrometer GCMS-QP5050A
Simultaneous multi-components analysis
by SIM method(a fixed quantity)
◎Components
 to be analyzed
 simultaneously
20 components (as of May, 2000)
◎Analysis ingredient Organic Lynn systems (CHLORPHENAPYR, DDVP, etc.)
Organic chlorine system insecticide
(DICOFOL・Chlorothalonil etc.)others




Instruments used for analysis

Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer

[Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer]
The solution of extracted tea components injected into Gas Chromatograph is separated into each component (such as a chemical and a vitamin). Molecular ions of each separated component are detected by Mass Spectrometer and the components are specified based on thus obtained data.

[SIM (Selected Ion Monitoring) method]
SIM method selectively detects the ions characteristic to agricultural chemicals and analyzes them with high sensitivity.
