PFAS Interlaboratory Study from Potable and Non-potable Water Samples

Photodegradation of plastic products is known to accelerate weathering and the resulting release of chemical additives and particles to the environment, however these processes are complex. Here, eight different plastic consumer products were leached in double-distilled water under exposure to strong ultraviolet (UV) light for ten days, and the chemical composition of the leachates was compared to their respective dark controls. The leachates and plastic particles were investigated with a wide battery of chemical-analytical tools to broadly characterize the underlying processes and possible hazards. These covered (a) metal(loid) analysis, (b) microplastic analysis, (c) analysis of >70 organic target analytes and (d) nontargeted screening of the extracts.

We present a reliable NanoPak-C All Carbon SPE method for extracting and detecting 15 OCPs from small quantities of soil (100 mg) and river water (200 µL) samples.

This application note demonstrates the performance of BioCore SEC columns for determining aggregation and fragmentation associated with antibody-based biotherapeutics.

This application note demonstrates a novel composite technology that enhances reproducibility of solid phase extraction compared to a traditional loose packed format.

This app note outlines SPE extraction of water samples following EPA Draft Method 1634, comparing polymeric HLD SPE cartridges and polymeric HLB SPE cartridges.

This application note demonstrates the use of Thermal Desorption as greener approach for sampling of terpenes in air for workplace exposure or terpene profiling
