Analysis of disinfection byproducts, including nine haloacetic acids, bromate, and dalapon using IC–MS/MS per US EPA Method 557
16 Aug 2024Clean drinking water is critically important to human health. Typically, both mechanical and chemical processes are needed to ensure drinking water quality; however, the by-products of chemical processes can include chlorinated to halogenated acids (HAAs) and bromate among others. Because excessive consumption of these compounds can result in severe health issues, drinking water regulations require determination of the concentrations of disinfection by-products (DBPs) prior to release to the public. Thermo Fisher Scientific shows that quantitation of target DBPs in drinking water per U.S. EPA Method 557 is robust, reliable, reproducible, and requires no sample preparation, allowing significant time, hazardous waste, and cost savings.

Ion ChromatographyIon chromatography, also known as ion exchange chromatography, is a high-performance liquid chromatographic technique used for the separation and identification of ions or polar molecules in a sample, including proteins, nucleotides and amino acids. Equipment includes ion exchange columns, ion exclusion columns, ion chromatography systems, pumps, and detectors. Find the best ion chromatography equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.
