Sanan, T., Jim Voit, Dan Tettenhorst, AND J. Jones. PFAS Analytical Method Development and Support For Treatment Studies. ROCS-Net Virtual Event - PFAS and Emerging Contaminants, NA, OH, May 16 - 18, 2022.
Impact/Purpose:
This is an overview of PFAS analytical support laboratories in Cincinnati, where multiple techniques are used to quantify and characterize PFAS in environmental samples from both in-house and extramural projects. This presentation will highlight efforts within ORD to develop rapid and efficient methods to measure PFAS to support treatment studies, comparatively evaluate different in-house and EPA standard analytical methods. This presentation will also highlight EPA Methods 537.1, 533, and other method development efforts, and the use of these methods in gathering national occurrence data for unregulated contaminants in drinking water, and will describe efforts to measure total organofluorine using a combustion ion chromatographic approach.
