Environmental PFAS Testing: Introducing Next-Generation Mass Spectrometry Solutions
Struggling to keep up with tightening PFAS regulations and shrinking reporting limits? Laboratories are under increasing pressure to deliver faster, more accurate results while managing complex environmental samples. In this Digital Classrooms session, explore a comprehensive approach to PFAS analysis that combines Shimadzu's total solution with an innovative strategy to tackle these challenges effectively.
This session covers Shimadzu's PFAS capabilities across its analytical platforms — delivering precise quantification and broad-spectrum characterization across different PFAS classes, while MALDI-TOF imaging accelerates rapid screening, allowing labs to triage high-risk samples in minutes while protecting critical LC-MS/MS systems from contamination.
Whether you work in environmental testing, regulatory compliance, water quality, or research, this session provides actionable insights to improve your PFAS testing capabilities. Join us to stay ahead in the ever-evolving world of PFAS analysis. Register Now!
Learning Objectives
- Understand how advanced LC-MS/MS workflows enable sensitive and selective quantification of regulated PFAS compounds in environmental matrices, including strategies to meet tightening reporting limits and evolving regulatory requirements.
- Recognize the value of rapid MALDI-TOF imaging as a high-throughput screening tool for identifying elevated PFAS levels in water samples, enabling efficient sample triage and reducing contamination risk to LC-MS/MS systems.
- Evaluate how integrating screening and confirmatory mass spectrometry approaches improves laboratory efficiency, data confidence, and regulatory readiness in modern PFAS monitoring programs.
