I am currently conducting a multitude of different assays for the analysis of ginkgo biloba leaves. In terms of instrumentation these assays rely heavily on the use of HPLC.Further to routine analysis, I carry out work in the in-process (I.P) laboratory which involves analyzing samples from the plant in real time. For this work, I employ the following.

Dunboyne, Co.Meath, Ireland

My work predominately consisted of routine sample analysis using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS).I also carried out research on a small scale and helped develop existing assays with a view of further optimisation.Further to this, I utilised the following forms of instrumentation on a.
