PFAS Analysis by EPA method 537.1 using VWR® HiPerSolv CHROMANORM® PFAS grade solvents
EPA Method 537.1 로 PFAS 분석 시 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있는 방법
Abstract
The white paper focuses on the analysis of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) using the EPA Method 537.1. It highlights the application of VWR® HiPerSolv CHROMANORM® PFAS-grade solvents, specifically 5 mM ammonium acetate, for Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS). The study compares the performance of CHROMANORM® PFAS-grade solvents against LC-MS-grade alternatives, emphasizing their reliability and suitability for accurate PFAS detection. This method is critical for environmental monitoring and compliance, given the increasing regulatory focus on PFAS contamination. The document underscores the significance of using high-quality solvents in analytical workflows to ensure precise, reproducible results in detecting and quantifying PFAS in water samples.
