Keywords: ecotoxicology, pharmaceutical analysis, food analysis, art objects analysis, hyphenated techniques, electrospray mass spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, high performance liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis,

Research profile:

· hyphenated analytical techniques: high performance separation techniques – LC and CE with mass spectrometric detection - ICP MS and ESI MS

· chemical separation and preconcentration methods

· sensitive chromatographic and spectrophotometric methods for the determination of metal ions and small inorganic species

Domains of applications:

· ecotoxicology: environmental speciation analysis

· cultural heritage preservation: identification of natural products (organic dyes, pigments, binding media) in art objects.

· food and pharmaceutical analysis: identification of active species and their metal complexes in herbal products
