On the occasion of the 10th anniversary, we had the pleasure of joining a series of inspiring talks on the latest advances in mass spectrometry — all in a truly high-calibre setting. Among them, our contribution on mycotoxins in plant-based milk alternatives. Here’s to the next decade of discovery!

We congratulate our colleague Christian Schnurr on winning the 2nd Audience Award for Science Communication at the Salzburg University Weeks. The Salzburg University Weeks are Europe's oldest summer school and are dedicated to socio-political topics, this year under the motto “What keeps us alive…

We contributed to folate analysis in an interdisciplinary project on the nutritional and sensory analysis of chlorella powders. Of eight different commercially available chlorella powders, Chlorella vulgaris powder was particularly rich in folates. While the vitamin C, D, and E content in the tested…

I had the pleasure of giving a lecture on food toxicology as part of the Sustainable Food Master's program at TUM Asia in Singapore. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the dedicated students, who were keen to engage in discussion and whom I wish all the best for their future studies.

We congratulate Dr. Stefan Pieczonka, who successfully started his two-year research stay at our partner university, the University of Queensland (UQ), as a DFG Walter Benjamin Fellow. At the Queensland Mass Spectrometry Symposium (QMSS) 2025, which was held at Griffith University on the Gold Coast,…

In the newest paper by the PROVIDE project, Scheibenzuber et al. investigate the consumer acceptance of new food ingredients from food industry by-products.  Beside household, retail, or restaurant-based food waste, there are also large amounts of product-specific food waste – so-called food…

In the latest paper of the WG Foodomics together with the project partner Mars Petcare, a long-term study on the non-targeted mass spectrometric analysis of pet food samples is presented. Over 6 years, 32 batches of pet food samples were measured using FT-ICR-MS. Repeated analysis of two quality…

In our latest publication on mycotoxin research, Biehl et al. take a closer look at the malting process. Using a multi-mycotoxin LC-MS/MS method, 14 Fusarium toxins, including modified ones, were analyzed in barley before and during malting. In a micro-malting setup, barley malt inoculated with F.…

Our former Master's student and current PhD candidate Franka Nöth has been awarded the Silesia-Clemens-Hanke Master of Science Prize for her outstanding Master's thesis! Under the supervision of Sarah Schneidemann, she conducted her research at our department on the topic: "Identification and…

The METROFOOD-EPI open event on 13.12.2024 in Rome was a great success! We were happy to present the exciting results of our transnational service access for integrated analytical services with METROFOOD-RI. It was a pleasure to re-unite with all our partners at the final consortium meeting and the…
