Event Overview:
Safe consumption of dietary supplements in pill, gel capsule, powder—or any of the other forms available—is increasingly important in this growing market. Heavy metals analysis based on USP 232/233 or similar monograph ensures safety of consumers, but it must also be done in a rapid, easy fashion. Tune in to learn how to perform rapid, simple digests of these samples and complete analysis for As, Cd, Pb, and Hg, among other heavy metals.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Learn tips and tricks for digesting various dietary supplements
- Discover how to better digest and analyze different sample matrices
- Learn how to handle rush samples, high throughput samples, and maximize lab productivity
Who Should Attend:
- Metals analysis lab managers, chemists, and technicians involved in trace metals testing
- Lab managers and lab technicians looking to optimize heavy metals analysis of nutraceuticals and dietary supplements
- Lab directors and commercial lab managers looking to maximize lab productivity

Alicia Stell
Market Development Manager
CEM Corporation
Alicia Douglas Stell graduated Magna Cum Laude from Bridgewater College with a bachelor of science degree in chemistry and mathematics. She received her PhD in analytical chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where her research focused on the synthesis and characterization of silver and gold bimetal monolayer protected clusters.
Dr. Stell has been with CEM since completing her graduate degree. She has had a number of publications in technical journals spanning both her graduate career and time at CEM. During her 16 years at CEM, she has grown within the company. She started her career in CEM’s Life Science division where she played a key role in the development of the Liberty™ peptide synthesizer product line. Alicia then became one of the first members of a newly formed product development team that started the initial work on the EDGE® automated extraction system. Following her work with EDGE product development, she grew into a new role exploring new markets for novel applications and innovative technology. Alicia is a crucial member of team of scientists and engineers that work to simplify laboratory workflows and bring better sample preparation to our customers.
