Detection of PFAS in Foods: Interlaboratory Comparison of Two Analytical Methods

Food matrices and a fish reference material were analyzed by the Nestle and FDA labs each implementing two different methods to test for accuracy and robustness.
Key Learning Points
- Find the comparison of accuracy and reproducibility of two methods
- Listen in to a discussion on challenges with difficult matrices
- Learn about aspects of LC-MS/MS to consider in the detection and quantitation pf PFAs in food
Who Should Attend
Any scientists, researchers, and lab analysts conducting PFAS analysis, food safety advocates, food manufacturers and anyone interested in food safety.
