Agilent announces optimized and verified method for testing more than 100 PFAS compounds<\/h1>\/ in E-News<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/header>\n<\/div><\/section>

Agilent Technologies has announced the availability of an optimized and verified eMethod for PFAS Analysis in Water by LC\/ TQ for testing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking and surface water using liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

PFAS \u2013 known as \u2018Forever Chemicals\u2019 \u2013 are a group of man-made chemicals that include PFOA, PFOS, GenX, and many others. PFAS have been manufactured and used in a variety of industries worldwide since the 1940s. Environmental contamination of PFAS compounds continues to be a highly visible environmental issue.<\/p>\n

\u201cRegulators across the globe continue to implement or evolve guidance, which is pushing our environmental customers to add this analysis to their portfolio or update their existing analysis,\u201d said Tarun Anumol, Ph.D., director of Agilent\u2019s Global Environment and Food Applied Markets. \u201cThis solution provides users a fully-developed workflow for the analysis of legacy and emerging PFAS including sample preparation, analysis, and reporting.\u201d<\/p>\n

Customers can now use Agilent\u2019s PFAS drinking and surface water solution to run real samples within hours, eliminating the requirement for an exhaustive investigation, optimization, and method development that often took weeks. The solution includes optimized analytical protocols (sample preparation protocol, step-by-step workflow guide, and ready-to-run acquisition and quantitation methods) and a detailed list of consumables, supplies, and lab equipment necessary to implement the complete analytical protocol.<\/p>\n

\u201cMore than 100 PFAS compounds are included in this method covering all important regulations, so customers can stay relevant as regulations are updated, and can also future-proof their PFAS analysis with several emerging PFAS,\u201d Anumol said.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
