Ultra Low-Level Detection of Perfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) using the PFC Analysis Kit

This 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.
