Groundwater CSI: Unravelling Pollution Sources in Complex Environments with Liquid Chromatography Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry

December 1st 2021

It is often very difficult to distinguish the true source of wastewater contamination, especially where wastewater treatment plants are located in agricultural areas. Robust and sensitive techniques are needed to characterize impacts where there are multiple potential sources. This study analyzed a variety of synthetic chemicals using LC–QQQ–MS to generate unique fingerprints of pollution.
