Shimadzu OnDemand Webcast: Water quality – PFAS analysis pitfalls and fixes

Emerging water quality issues: Are you ready to measure water quality using PFAS analysis? 

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of persistent and harmful chemicals that can be commonly found in water and the wider environment. With concerns rising quickly about the health risks associated with PFAS exposure, it is important to ensure proper monitoring of these chemicals in the environment.

This informative webinar, from our partner Shimadzu, examines how modern Mass Spectroscopy impacts detectability of low level, highly toxic chemical compounds.

This webinar offers insights into:

• Per-and Polyfluorinated substances (PFAS) general information
• Standardized Analytical Method (ASTM and EPA) overview
• Sensitive LCMS techniques applied
• First ever LC-MS/MS Mobile lab
• Open Q&A session recorded with this webinar

There will be an overview of analytical techniques and the newest Shimadzu instrumentation used to monitor trace levels PFAS:

• Time of Flight analysis using LCMS-9030 QTOF
• Direct injections using LCMS-8050 and LCMS-8060 series

If you would like more information on analytical instrumentation used for analyses of PFAS in water samples check our Mason Technology resources for LCMS-9030 QTOF:
