Environmental Analysis

Dr. Emanuela Gionfriddo, Assistant Professor at the University of Toledo in Ohio, USA explains how she has been focusing on developing analytical tools that can detect and quantify harmful substances, such as PFAS.

This study demonstrates a direct injection approach to PFAS analysis, utilizing a PerkinElmer QSight^® 420 mass spectrometer coupled with UHPLC for the analysis of trace amounts of PFAS in drinking water and surface water samples.

In this study, an LC/MS/MS direct sample injection method was developed, and the results indicate that this simple LC/MS/MS workflow provides an excellent sensitivity and specificity for the analysis of PFASs in drinking and surface water samples.

In this study, different methods for the separation, detection and quantitation of complex polar contaminants by UHPLC/MS/MS in water matrices are demonstrated.

This study demonstrates the use of PerkinElmer’s QSight^® 420 mass spectrometer, coupled with UHPLC for the determination of trace amount of PFOA and PFOS in drinking and surface water samples by means of a direct injection approach.
