Event Overview:
Join this webinar for an in-depth discussion on PFAS analysis according to EPA Method 1633 while identifying and mitigating background contamination. EPA Method 1633 addresses PFAS in a diverse range of environmental matrices and therefore poses a unique analysis challenge in comparison to other EPA methods for drinking water, such as 533 and 537.1. This webinar will address how to effectively overcome the unique challenges posed by EPA Method 1633 in non-potable water and other environmental matrices.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Learn how to optimize sample preparation for EPA Method 1633, specifically designed for non-potable water and dirtier matrices.
- Learn how to identify and mitigate background PFAS contamination, which is crucial for accurate environmental analysis.
- Learn how to streamline your PFAS analysis workflow for non-potable and challenging environmental matrices by minimizing downtime.
Who Should Attend:
- Professionals in the field of environmental testing and monitoring

Inside the Laboratory: The Richardson Group at the University of South Carolina
November 20th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Susan Richardson of the University of South Carolina discusses her laboratory’s work with using electron ionization and chemical ionization with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to detect DBPs in complex environmental matrices, and how her work advances environmental analysis.
RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
