“…Classical analytical methods for detecting CTN are high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC; Galera, Vidal, & Frenich, 1997), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS; Chaves, Shea, & Danehower, 2008;Yamamoto et al, 2009), and gas chromatography (Kurz et al, 2008;Vargyas, Walls, Bramstedt, & Eilrich, 2000). These methods require extensive sample preparation and well-trained personnel to operate sophisticated instruments and interpret the results.…”
