Separation Science, in collaboration with Shimadzu, is pleased to   present a series of application notes demonstrating recent advances in water analysis.   Simply click on the buttons to download your own copy.

A High Sensitivity Method for   Quantitative Determination of Ten Phenols in Surface Water on LC/MS/MS with   APCI Interface   This   application note describes an MRM-based method for detection and quantitation   of phenol and nine substituted phenols in reservoir water, without   pre-treatment and pre-concentration. Coupled with a pentafluorophenyl   column, treated water and reservoir water were analysed on a triple   quadrupole LC/MS/MS with an APCI interface. 

Quantitative Analysis of   Residual Artificial Sweeteners in Surface Water by Highly Sensitive LC/MS/MS   Method   This   application note describes an LC/MS/MS method for direct quantitation of   artificial sweeteners in surface water and drinking water. Using the   triple quadrupole system LCMS-8060 coupled with a biphenyl column, trace   levels of artificial sweeteners in surface water could be detected without   pre-treatment or enrichment.

A Highly Sensitive MRM-Based   Method for Detection and Quantitation of Seven   Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) in Surface Water   This application note describes a high sensitivity detection method for the   detection of   Pharmaceuticals and Personal Care Products (PPCPs) in surface water that does   not require pre-treatment and concentration of water samples. The method   uses a model of triple quadrupole LCMS-8060 system coupled with the Nexera   UHPLC; enabling a fast gradient elution program with a pentafluorophenyl   (PFP) column.      

High-Sensitivity Analysis of   Nonylphenol in River Water Using GC-MS/MS   In this   application note, a method using a high selectivity triple quadrupole gas   chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS/MS) to detect for NP in river water   is presented. Using this method, it was possible to detect for 13   nonylphenol isomers standard solutions at a concentration of 0.01   µg/mL.
