The use of Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy to Determine Specific Second-Generation Rodenticide Diastereomer Ratios Within Wildlife Liver Samples: The Pursuit Towards a Safer Bait Formula

A recently published master’s thesis from UC Davis discusses rodenticide diastereomers in wildlife liver samples. Liver samples from both targeted and non-target wildlife were analyzed for this project. Non-target species included coyotes, gray foxes, and cougars. The student used chicken liver for the control. Samples were analyzed for the cis and trans isomers of bromadiolone…
