Vial Sampling Kits for PFAS Analysis


Finneran Porvair has introduced new Convenience Kits for Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) testing. Because Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances don’t break down they can accumulate over time in the environment and in the human body. There is increasing evidence that exposure to PFAS can adversely affect human health. As a result, regulatory bodies are increasingly legislating that many materials should be tested to ensure that they contain no traces of PFAS or that the traces are below allowed legal limits.


Because PFAS are widely used in materials, such as PTFE, commonly used in chemical analysis consumables, laboratories are in need of new labware products to minimise background contamination from these chemicals.


Finneran Porvair R.A.M™ screw thread vials are purpose designed for PFAS analyses. Manufactured from chemically resistant polypropylene, they are ideal for ‘PFAS-free’ sampling, testing, storing and transporting tasks. These lightweight vials are an economical alternative to glass and are designed to work in most autosamplers.


When you are unable to use PTFE as a vial liner, Finneran Porvair Sciences new polyimide/silicone lined closure is the perfect alternative. This new closure has a useable temperature range up to 130°C, while the liner performs well up to ten injections. The polyimide is amber translucent and the white silicone rubber is a high purity rubber composition resulting in low leachables.


Finneran Porvair’s new Convenience Kits for PFAS testing contains 100 R.A.M™ screw thread polypropylene vials and 100 of the new closure/septa,


packaged in a clear tray that fit a bench drawer for easy access. More information online: ilmt.co/PL/MQr0

Monolithic Chromatography and its Modern Applications


High-performance liquid chromatography has become the predominant global separation technique over the past four decades. However, the recent development of an alternative column packing material - a one-piece porous solid known as a ‘monolith’ - has transformed the field. Monoliths have attracted a large amount of interest due to the enhanced speed and thoroughness with which they can separate complex mixtures of biological molecules.


Monolithic Chromatography and its Modern Applications is the book for any seasoned scientist already using monolithic columns, as well as those novices who are new to the area and would like to know more about this technique. It’s the ideal resource for all analytical laboratories thinking of improving their separation protocols. In this book, global experts comprehensively describe this developing field, with part one covering the synthesis and characterisation of the columns and part two discussing their numerous applications.

Expand Your Knowledge of Reversed Phase Liquid Chromatography Method Development


Sign up for your free access to Shimadzu’s Liquid Chromatography Knowledge Base at www.shimadzu.co.uk/lc-resources, which promotes a firm foundation for understanding key concepts of method development.


The Advanced Articles, which are sent every fortnight for the duration of the series, covers a range of topics including: simple techniques to predict retention times when changing temperature or %organic; highlighting the benefits of computational models to predict retention mechanisms; how stationary phases are selected.


These Advanced Articles are designed for lab users who want to up-skill or reinforce historical method development training, researchers, analytical chemists and research & development laboratory managers looking to improve workflows.


This series complements the educational webinars provided by Shimadzu and the Back to Basics LC articles to help enhance your knowledge and skill base.
