Addressing the Challenges of PFAS Analysis in a Variety of Matrices: From Air to Zipper Bags

How to speed up sample prep time and equivalent acccuracy and precision.

Comparison of PFAS Sample Preparation Between WAX + Dispersive GCB and WAX/GCB Cartridges from Water and Soil Extracts Per Draft EPA 1633

How to lower the limits of quantitation as the regulatory landscape continues
to evolve.

Lowering Limits of Quantitation in LC–MS/MS Analyses for Food Safety and Environmental Applications

Exploring the concerns surrounding the use of organotin compounds and
their impact on the environment and potential toxicity to mammals.

Investigating the Environmental Impact of Organotins

The Column spoke to Brett Paull from the University of Tasmania in Hobart, Australia, about the development of truly portable LC systems for use in the pharmaceutical industry and in environmental analysis. Why are they necessary, and where can improvements still be made?

Building Small But Thinking Big

Are generic workflows really needed in environmental analysis? In the end, it is the analyst— not instrumentation or software—that is in charge of what data are obtained, after thoughtfully considering what sample preparation and acquisition method to use.

What’s Your Workflow? Non-Targeted Analysis of Water Samples

The Column spoke to Philipp Weller from the Institute of Instrumental Analytics and Bioanalytics at the Mannheim University of Applied Sciences, Germany, about the benefits of nontargeted screening approaches in food safety and environmental analysis using GC–IMS, and the best way to approach data processing and model building with the generated data.

New Adventures in GC–IMS for Nontargeted Screening of Food and Environmental Samples

Elinor Hughes obtained her B.Sc. in chemistry and Ph.D. in organic chemistry at Bangor University, UK. After working for a chemical manufacturing company for three years, she moved to the Royal Society of Chemistry where she worked in journals publishing for six years and on Chemistry World magazine for four years. This was followed by five years as a freelance copyeditor and science writer. Her current role is technical copywriter at Markes International.
