This application note describes a method for the rapid and simultaneous quantitation of benzene, 1,4-dioxane, and formaldehyde in personal care products (PCPs). Nine retail hair and skincare products from the United Kingdom were analyzed, with limits of quantitation (LOQs) for benzene in the low-ng g−1 range and 1,4-dioxane and formaldehyde in the sub- and low- μg g−1 range, respectively. Preliminary results indicate that SIFT-MS holds an 8- to 30-fold throughput advantage when compared to conventional gas chromatography (GC-MS).

Biozen dSEC-7 accurately resolves AAV serotypes 5, 8 and 9 monomer from aggregates in under 10 minutes with consistent results across different mobile phase conditions.

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.

Microplastics are defined as small plastic particles between 1 µm and 5 mm in size. Due to poor waste management and plastic pollution, they are now documented to be ubiquitous in the environment.1,2 However, pathways of dietary exposure to microplastics are not yet fully understood. The consumption of bottled water has been calculated to increase by 7% annually, with an estimated mean total global consumption of bottled water to be 513 billion liters by 2025. This study demonstrates how the Agilent 8700 Laser Direct Infrared (LDIR) Chemical Imaging System can accurately identify and quantify the presence of microplastics in bottled drinking water. This study also shows the capability of the Agilent Cary 630 FTIR spectrometer to investigate the source of microplastic contamination.
