Pasquale Avino received his Ph.D. in chemical sciences from the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in 1997. He was appointed as a postdoctoral researcher (1997–1998) in the Department of Chemistry at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), in the Rowland (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1995) and Blake group. He is currently an associate professor in analytical and environmental chemistry in the Department of Agricultural, Environmental and Food Sciences at the University of Molise, Campobasso. His scientific activity is devoted to the development of innovative analytical methodologies for the extraction, concentration, and determination of organic micropollutants by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry in food and environmental matrices; the assessment of indoor air quality; and biomass and gasification issues in the context of the ecological transition.

Asked for one change to ease PFAS analysis, the panel points to better communication and smarter use of AI tools.
The experts compare direct injection and solid-phase extraction for handling PFAS in complex matrices.
The panel tackles the paradox of background contamination: the lower detection limits go, the more PFAS turn up everywhere.
Bryan Vining, David Megson, and Pasquale Avino examine why ultrashort-chain PFAS like TFA are reshaping analytical priorities.
The panel weighs non-targeted screening against total PFAS measurement to catch the compounds routine targeted methods may miss entirely.
The panelists debate how to harmonize PFAS methods across a rapidly expanding, poorly standardized universe of compounds.
The panel unpacks the defining challenge of PFAS analysis: a chemical class so vast and diverse it pushes current methods to their limits.
Meet the expert panel exploring the analytical challenges of environmental PFAS detection in this LCGC International Peer Exchange®.
