Use the chat bubble icon to ask questions. Objectives Provide attendees with information on 1) the current state of the science on what can and can't be done in analyzing PFAS in matrices other than drinking water; 2) the variety of methods and data quality caused by the lack of consensus methods; 3) what method(s) attendees should be asking labs to use; and 4) how they should interpret data they receive and what QA/QC data they should expect to be given or they should ask for (analogue/surrogate recoveries, recovery correction, J values, etc.). Schedule 10:00 Welcome & Introductions. This webinar is being recorded. 10:05 Slippery When Wet: Overview and Comparison of Methods 537 and ASTM D7979 and D7968 - William Lipps, Shimadzu This presentation includes an overview of analytical techniques and lab terminology, followed by details on the main methods in use for measuring PFAS. 10:30 Region 5 CRL Methods for the Analysis of Polyfluorinated Compounds (PFAS) Using a Quick Sample Extraction/Preparation Followed by UPLC/MS/MS Analysis - Lawrence Zintek, U. S. EPA Region 5 This presentation addresses the quality controls behind approved methods (such as Method 537), the limitations of modifications to Method 537 for analysis of matrices other than drinking water, and the single lab validation of ASTM D7979 and D7968 that suggests value in the use of those ASTM methods for now. 11:00 What's Happening in New England: Modified Methods, CERLA, Water Testing - Steve DiMattei, EPA Region 1 Laboratory (invited) 11:20 Laboratory Perspectives - Tim Fitzpatrick, Axys; Charles Neslund, Eurofins 11:35 Facilitated Q & A / Discussion (Please use the chat bubble icon to ask questions.) 11:55 End *Phone numbers for webinar: Atlanta, GA +1.404.400.8750 Camden, DE +1.302.202.5900 Hartford, CT +1.860.970.0010 Los Angeles, CA +1.213.226.1066 New York, NY +1.646.307.1990 San Francisco, CA +1.415.594.5500 Tampa, FL +1.813.769.0500 Washington, DC +1.202.602.1295 Click for more phone numbers...
