Biography
Dr. Hsin-Chang Chen's interests focus on developing gas/liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS), along with various modern extraction and microextraction procedures such as supported liquid extraction (SLE), solid-phase microextraction (SPME), microdialysis extraction (MDE), solid-phase extraction (SPE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and modified QuEChERS techniques. These methods are used for environmental analysis, human biomonitoring, and food safety.
Dr. Chen has a broad foundation not only in separation science, environmental analytical chemistry, mass spectrometry, and food safety, but also in clinical testing and human biomonitoring. The toxic chemicals of current interest to Dr. Chen include environmental hormones (such as nonylphenol, bisphenol A, parabens, and estrogens), acrylamide, carcinogenic volatile organic compounds, maleic acid, gossypol, fullerenes, N-nitrosamines, and heterocyclic amines. Moreover, Dr. Chen also applies design of experiment methods to optimize measurement procedures and performs quality assurance according to EU regulations and recommendations.
