A Rapid LCMS Method for Evaluation of EPA 1694 and 6810 Contaminants in Drinking Water
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) are chemicals such as endocrine disrupting compounds, pharmaceuticals and personal care products that have been detected in the environment. Most of these chemicals enter the environment through treated and raw sewage and are detrimental to the aquatic organisms at picogram per milliliter levels. Early detection for these CECs was performed using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) but more recently liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has become more popular for detecting low levels of these contaminants in wastewater. This poster describes a comprehensive method for evaluating multiple steroids, pharmaceuticals and personal care products at picogram per milliliter levels in drinking water using ultra-fast LCMS-MS.
