Tato norma je určena pro analýzu různých typů vod a umožňuje nejen stanovení AOF, ale i jednotlivých podílů chloru (AOCl), bromu (AOBr) a jodu (AOI). Monitoring těchto látek je klíčový pro hodnocení kvality vody, identifikaci zdrojů znečištění a ověření účinnosti technologií jejich odstraňování. Parametr AOF navíc slouží jako výborný screeningový parametr pro per- a polyfluoralkylové sloučeniny (PFAS), jelikož právě tyto substance tvoří podmnožinu látek AOF i EOF.

Thinking of developing a new method utilizing MS? Selecting the best analytical method begins with a decision on how to best separate the analytes of interest. This choice will affect sample preparation and sample introduction, so it is important to get it right early. In this webinar we will review analyte structural properties that make the compound more amenable to either liquid chromatography or to gas chromatography.

Three Webinars and a Roundtable with Experts from Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, Metrohm &amp; Mettler Toledo
A Week Dedicated to Karl Fischer Titration!
Karl Fischer titration is still the most used, most accurate, and fastest method to determine water content in all kinds of sample matrices. This titration week covers different aspects that need to be considered when determining the water content in products, raw materials, and other substances. Experts from the life science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany, Metrohm AG, and Mettler Toledo will present and discuss different steps of the Karl Fischer titration process and how to improve it. Learnings include:
<ul>
<li>Karl Fischer titration process and tips for how to improve it</li>
<li>Karl Fischer oven method and its advantages</li>
<li>Reference materials to use for titer determination, instrument check, and result verification</li>
<li>Parameters needed to validate a Karl Fischer titration application</li>
<li>News and future aspects of Karl Fischer titration</li>
</ul>
<h3>The Karl Fischer Oven Method – Step by Step</h3>
arl Fischer (KF) titration is a standard method for the water content determination in all types of substances. However, for various reasons, some substances are not suitable for a direct Karl Fischer titration. These reasons include that they undergo side reaction with KF reagents; they contaminate the titration cell and/or the electrodes; the substances are poorly soluble in alcohol; they release their water only slowly; or the water is released at high temperatures only. These problems can be avoided by using the oven method. This makes the KF oven method the perfect solution for the analysis of difficult samples. By attending this presentation, you will learn:
<ul>
<li>The principle of the oven method</li>
<li>How to properly prepare your titration system with an oven</li>
<li>How to prepare your sample</li>
<li>How to select the optimal oven temperature</li>
</ul>
After viewing this webinar, you will know how to perform accurate sample measurements using the oven method.

Purification is critical to many scientific workflows. Compounds of interest are rarely found to be the right purity in their native state. Join Waters and Virscidian for this 6-part webinar series to learn the basics of purification and application of purification principles for more advanced workflows.
<h3>PART 2 | Basics of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography Purification</h3>
Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) is an effective and green technique to isolate a compound(s) of interest from a mixture. SFC utilizes liquid CO2 to quickly isolate compounds while minimizing the efforts required to dry the collected fraction. In this module, we will discuss factors involved in SFC purification. 
Learning Objectives: 
<ul>
<li>Understand how to use SFC purification</li>
<li>Make informed decisions on method optimization</li>

The calculation of signal to noise ratio is a critical parameter during method development, method validation and routine monitoring the performance of a chromatographic method. Both Limit of Detection (LOD or LDL) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ or LQL) are based on signal to noise ratio. Empower can calculate signal to noise ratio in many ways. While we designed this functionality in Empower to comply with pharmacopeia requirements, there are alternative methods for this calculation.
Key points of discussion will be:
<ul>
<li>Calculating Signal to Noise ratio as per USP/EP/JP Requirements</li>
<li>Calculating Signal to Noise ratio using other options within the System Suitability option</li>
<li>Calculating Signal to Noise ratio without the System Suitability Option</li>
</ul>
Please join us for a live discussion. As always, don’t forget to bring your Empower questions for this exclusive opportunity to ask our experts anything about Empower Software.

Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MSI) is a technique that allows chemical information to be obtained directly or via the use of matrices from a wide range of surfaces. MS Imaging provides information on the spatial distribution of molecules at or near the surface. Imaging provides beautiful and information-rich images that allow scientists to answer the fundamental question: “Where is this component in my sample?”
In this webinar series, we will examine the basics of MS imaging, compare the techniques of untargeted and targeted MS Imaging and the information that can be gained from each, and end with an interview from Dr. Ryan Leib (Stanford University) and Dr. Roy Martin (Waters Corporation) on the practicalities of setting up a MS Imaging Core lab.
Who Should Attend: Any scientist, lab managers or lab directors looking to expand (or refresh) their knowledge of MS Imaging.
<h3>Part One – October 10th, 2023: What is mass spectrometric imaging?</h3>
In this session, we will examine the types of MS imaging techniques on the market and the platforms on which they can be run. We will also discuss the types of data and information that MS imaging can provide and what imaging provides a user that other mass spectrometric techniques cannot.
