Inside the Laboratory –– A Look at Environmental Analysis, PFAS, and Contaminants of Emerging Concern

Inside the Laboratory is a joint series with LCGC International and Spectroscopy, profiling analytical scientists and their research groups at universities all over the world. This series spotlights the current chromatographic and spectroscopic research their groups are conducting, and the importance of their research in analytical chemistry and specific industries. In this “Inside the Laboratory –– A Look at Environmental Analysis, PFAS, and Contaminants of Emerging Concern” special edition PDF, we profile Dr. Lee Blaney and his laboratory at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC), in Baltimore, Maryland. This special edition PDF highlights the research Dr. Blaney is spearheading in his laboratory, which include studying contaminants of emerging concern and developing advanced analytical methods that can better improve detection and quantification of CECs in the environment, as well as producing new treatment technologies for diverse contaminants in water and wastewater.
