A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method has been developed for the determination of residues of alkylbenzyldimethylammonium, didecyldimethylammonium, didodecyldimethylammonium, and benzyldodecylhydroxyethylammonium compounds in various food matrixes. These quaternary ammonium compounds (QAs) are used in the food industry as disinfectants. According to

Commercial grapefruit seed extracts (GSE) were extracted with chloroform. The solvent was evaporated, and the resulting solid was subsequently analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and elemental analysis (by proton-induced X-ray emission
