The topics varied from method development for the analysis of mycotoxin in cured meats and cheese to studying the fragmentation of dissolved organic matter. The titles for the theses of the six students were the following:

Onyeka Francis Offor – MALDI mass spectrometry analysis of Acetyl CoA and other CoA relevant to human

Tetiana Kyrpel – Development of a high-throughput LC-MS/MS method for the quantification of lipid mediators and related drug metabolites in urine

Alina Politova – LC-MS/MS method development for the analysis of ochratoxin A in cured meats and cheese

Le Hoang Yen Nguyen – Method development and validation for the fingerprinting of specific steroid associated with Primary Aldosteronism (PA)

Thị Phương Thanh Dương – Multiomic correlations in Standardbred trotters during intense training

Mustapha Adekomi Ganiyu – Investigation into the ionisation efficiency and fragmentation of carboxyl rich alicyclic molecules and dissolved organic matter in negative mode ESI

Congratulations and wishing you all the best in the future!
