On-line Concentration and Fluorescence Determination HPLC for PAHs in Seawater Samples and its Application to Japan Sea
This method, developed by researchers at Kanazawa University, allowed measurements in the low ng/g range, with high recoveries and a good intraday and interday repeatability. Permitted Water Pollution Discharges and Population Cancer and Non-Cancer Mortality The study conducts statistical and spatial analyses to investigate amounts and types of permitted surface water pollution discharges in relation to population mortality rates for cancer and non-cancer causes in US rural-urban areas. Development of a Screening Method for the Determination of PCBs in Water This novel method utilises gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry for the simultaneous analysis of 11 polychlorinated biphenyls. Thermo Scientific Launches European Seminar Series: “New Frontiers in Water Analysis” Seminars will feature new Thermo Scientific water analysis products and solutions. Study Shows Air Emissions Near Fracking Sites May Pose Health Risk The report, based on three years of monitoring, found a number of potentially toxic petroleum hydrocarbons in the air near the wells including benzene, ethylbenzene, toluene and xylene. Lens-Free Triple Quadrupole MS and Ion Transfer Efficiency at Interfaces for Environmental Monitoring Following a realisation of the long term effects of waste disposal, environmental analysis has become embedded as one of the most important aspects of modern analytical chemistry. Characterization of Lead-Phytochelatin Complexes by Nano-Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry This study describes the development of a nano-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method for the identification and characterization of Lead(II) and Zinc(II) phytochelatin complexes. The Water Footprint of Humanity By showing that several countries heavily rely on foreign water resources which significantly impacts water consumption and pollution elsewhere, researchers from the University of Twente illustrate the global dimension of water consumption and pollution. New Study of Global Freshwater Scarcity A new report published in the journal PLoS ONE, analyzing water consumption in 405 river basins around the world, found that water scarcity impacts at least 2.7 billion people for at least one month each year. UCLA Engineers Create Cell Phone-Based Sensor for Detection of E. coli The study illustrates the promising potential of a cell phone–enabled, field-portable and cost-effective E. coli detection platform for the screening of both water and food samples.
