Scientist adding soil to test tube for PFAS sample preparation
ArticlesWater, soil, biosolids, tissue and food present different extraction and cleanup demands. A matrix-led strategy protects recovery, sensitivity and data quality.
ArticlesInfrastructure, investment, data quality, and staff confidence often determine whether automation delivers practical value.
ArticlesAs the industry shifts toward biologicals, analytical chemists face new challenges in characterizing complex microbial metabolites and monitoring field persistence using LC-MS/MS, HRMS, and NMR.
Application NotesA modified EPA Method 1633A was used to analyze PFAS in solvents, showing that solvent purity is critical for accurate results and avoiding false positives.
