Ken Strassburger conducts research using various mass spectrometry techniques like LC/MSN LTQ-XL, GC-X-GC TOF/MS, and GC-X-GC to better understand flavors, detect bio-active peptides and compounds in pharmaceuticals and flavors, and diagnose citrus diseases. His work involves data mining LC/MS data using HESI-II, establishing new detection limits with GC-X-GC that dramatically increase signal-to-noise ratios, and visualizing GC-X-GC results.
