Per- and polyfluorinated alkyl (PFAS) substances are extremely persistent in the environment and can accumulate in the human body over time, causing adverse health effects.

Due to their hazardous nature, it is essential that drinking water is tested for the presence of PFAS. This is traditionally done using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Typically, most labs use manual sample extraction, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming and difficult to control.

This application note highlights how an automated solid-phase extraction (SPE) system can provide reliable, sensitive and accurate determination of PFAS in large-volume samples.
