  Thermo Fisher Scientific Collaborates with US EPA to Improve Holding Time and MDLs for Chromate in Drinking Water
Jan 30, 2012
Thermo Fisher ScientificThermo Fisher Scientific Inc. is pleased to announce that its participation in the secondary validation of US EPA Method 218.7 for hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), in processed drinking water is complete. Cr(VI) is a toxic compound regulated by the EPA for certain wastewaters. Our scientists have been participating in a collaborative project with the EPA Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water in Cincinnati to improve the holding time and sensitivity of US EPA Method 218.6...
  Thermo Fisher Scientific Launches Technical Library of LC-MS Solutions for Quick and Easy Analysis of PPCPs and Pesticides in Water
Dec 14, 2011
Thermo technical library of LC-MS solutions for water analysisThermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced the availability of a new technical library of LC-MS solutions for water analysis, including application information on the detection of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) and pesticides. 
  ALMSCO International’s High Definition GC/MS Technology Enables Trace Level Detection of Pesticides in Complex Apple Matrix
Aug 3, 2011
almscoALMSCO International, a division of Markes International Ltd, today announced a new high definition GC/MS method enabling scientists to screen for persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as pesticides at trace levels in complex apple matrices, without dependence on extensive sample clean-up. The new method, which is one component of ALMSCO's extensive food safety offering, is designed to offer optimal sensitivity without comprising speed of analyses and selectivity...
  Sage-N Research Signs an Exclusive Agreement with The U.S. Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center to License Technology for Microbial Identification
Jul 21, 2011
Sage-N Research, Sage-N Research, Inc., the world leader in computational proteomics, today announced that it entered into an exclusive license agreement with the U.S. Army Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (ECBC) to commercialize a revolutionary new platform for rapid and sensitive detection and identification of pathogenic microorganisms in fluid media...
  US EPA to Begin Regulatory Process for Perchlorate in Drinking Water
Jul 14, 2011
DionexOn Feb. 2 the EPA announced a final regulatory determination for perchlorate in drinking water. This announcement from Lisa Jackson, Administrator for the US EPA, reversed a preliminary determination in 2008 not to regulate perchlorate. With this action the EPA initiated development of a national primary drinking water regulation (NPDWR) that, once finalized, will require certain potable water suppliers to take corrective action for high perchlorate levels...
  Dionex Updates Application for More Sensitive Testing of Toxic Hexavalent Chromium in Drinking Water
Jun 29, 2011
DionexDionex is pleased to announce the release of Application Update 179: Sensitive Determination of Hexavalent Chromium in Drinking Water. Concern about the dangers of hexavalent chromium in drinking water has been rising as the National Toxicology Program (NTP) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has said that chromium-6 in drinking water shows evidence of carcinogenic activity. In addition, after the United States EPA released its Toxicological Review of Hexavalent Chromium report, the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) agency has issued a new Public Health Guideline (PHG) for chromate at 0.02 ppb in drinking water...
  Nitrogen Mustard Hydrolysis Products: Quantitative Analysis Improved
Feb 28, 2011
DionexDionex is proud to announce a rapid separation liquid chromatography (RSLC) tandem mass spectrometric (MS/MS) method for quantitative analysis of ethanolamines in environmental water samples. Application Note 271:Quantitative Analysis of Nitrogen Mustard Hydrolysis Products as Ethanolamines demonstrates use of the Dionex Acclaim® TrinityTM P1 Mixed-Mode column, featuring reversed-phase, anion-exchange, and cation-exchange retention mechanisms, to provide retention and resolution for five target analytes within 5 minutes.
  Common Cations and Amines Identification and Quantification Improved Using IC-MS
Feb 4, 2011
DionexDionex announces a new method that combines ion chromatography (IC) and mass spectrometry (MS) detection for the determination of six commonly occurring cations and four amines at part per billion (ppb) levels. With MS detection, confirmation of the analyte identity can be achieved from full-scan spectra, and quantification can be achieved at low ppb levels with greater confidence by using selected ion monitoring (SIM) scans. Application Note 269: Identification and Quantification at ppb Levels of Common Cations and Amines by IC-MS demonstrates successful application of this method with analysis of water samples.
