Course Summary

Comprehensive training on PFAS chemistry, regulations, analytical methods, and contamination management for water and food matrices.

We give valuable tips for sample preparation and discuss the most important optimization parameters for chromatographic separations of PFAS both in RP and HILIC chromatography

Course Outline

Introduction:

  • Chemistry of perfluorinated compounds
  • Regulatory framework
  • PFAS in drinking water (EU 2020/2184)
  • PFAS in food matrices (915/2023)

Official Methods:

  • Water analysis: EPA 533/537.1, EN 17892:2024, DIN 38407-42
  • Food matrices: FDA C-010.03, Eurl PoPs Annex 2.0

Alternative Methods:

  • From TOP Assay to Organic Fluorine
  • Ultra-short chain PFAS: chemistry and chromatography

Contamination Management:

  • Main contamination sources
  • Strategies: delay choice, consumables selection
  • Optimal LC and MS configurations

Practical Skills Acquired

This course will enable you to return to your lab with a comprehensive understanding of the analytical workflow related to PFAS, including:

  1. Insights into methods and legislation: gain clarity on official methods and regulatory requirements.
  2. Optimization of SPE protocols: learn best practices for method-specific solid-phase extraction.
  3. Chromatography performance and MS sensitivity: improve separation efficiency and enhance mass spectrometry detection.
  4. Tips for contamination management: identify sources and apply strategies to minimize contamination.
