Improving The Efficiency Of PFAS And Other High-Profile Analysis Using LC-MS Systems With waters_connect System Monitoring Software

In recent years, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have garnered considerable attention due to their persistence in the environment and potential health risks. Laboratories tasked with analyzing PFAS face strict regulatory standards, complex sample matrices, and the need for high sensitivity and precision in detecting these contaminants. Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) is widely regarded as the preferred method for PFAS testing, but optimizing laboratory productivity while ensuring the reliability of instrument operations can be challenging. Traditional approaches to monitoring system status, coordinating tasks, and addressing system errors require a physical presence, and they can be time-consuming, prone to errors, and unable to share information in real time. However, adopting advanced LC-MS system monitoring software can be an effective strategy for boosting laboratory efficiency. This white paper explores the advantages of such software in PFAS analysis, highlighting improvements in resource utilization and operational performance, without compromising security or data integrity.
