Ultra Low-Level Detection of Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) using the PFC Analysis Kit
19 Jun 2016This application note demonstrates the use of the PFC Analysis Kit on the ACQUITY UPLC® I-Class System and the limits of detection afforded for PFASs analyzed on the Xevo® TQ-S. Perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) encompass a range of fully fluorinated alkyl compounds, typically with an anionic end group. PFASs have been implemented in a range of consumer goods and as a result of their widespread use and subsequent leaching, they have been found in various environmental and biological samples.

UHPLC and HPLCHigh performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), also known as UPLC, are analytical techniques used to separate, identify and quantitate components of complex mixtures including biological samples such as proteins and lipids as well as chemical mixtures of pesticides, drugs and oils. Both techniques are liquid chromatographic methods but differ by operating pressures (HPLC < 6000 psi < UHPLC ). Components of HPLC and UHPLC systems include columns, detectors, pumps, autosamplers and column heaters. Explore a range of UHPLC and HPLC columns for your specific sample needs including reverse phase, normal phase, ion exchange, HILIC, ion exclusion and size exclusion columns. For more specialized HPLC, explore FPLC, countercurrent LC and simulated moving bed systems.
