Research Interests
Erick’s research focuses on developing high throughput capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry methodologies with extended metabolite coverage using chemical derivatization. His current work is focused on screening blood samples for vitamin D deficiency using a selective Diels-Alder derivatization to improve electrospray ionization for mass spectrometry detection. Additionally, Erick has explored the use of a nanoflow electrospray source to allow for low ng/mL detection of fentanyl in urine samples.
