David Megson from Manchester Metropolitan University in Manchester, UK, spoke to LCGC International about the latest developments in non-targeted analysis (NTA) of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in environmental matrices based on a recent systematic review paper he has collaboratively published (1).
A Review of the Latest Separation Science Research in PFAS Analysis
October 17th 2024This review aims to provide a summary of the most current analytical techniques and their applications in per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) research, contributing to the ongoing efforts to monitor and mitigate PFAS contamination.
Advanced LC–MS Analysis for PFAS Analysis in Eggs
October 11th 2024The European Commission's regulation on maximum levels for certain contaminants in food highlights the need for precise and reliable methods to quantify per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in various food matrices. This article discusses development and validation of a robust method for analyzing 21 PFAS compounds in chicken eggs using solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS).
