How the EU’s revised Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive is driving demand for ultra-sensitive LC-MS/MS workflows—and why nitrogen evaporation is critical for reliable micropollutant monitoring.

PFAS biomonitoring in fish and shellfish reveals how these “forever chemicals” accumulate in ecosystems. The article covers EU regulation, bioaccumulation pathways, and LC–MS/MS analysis.

A decade-long study from the Czech National Atmospheric Observatory shows that banned pesticides persist in the air decades later, driven by soil re-emission and slow environmental degradation.

Organomation explains how PFAS-free nitrogen evaporators eliminate fluoropolymer contamination by replacing PTFE tape with a PTFE-free sealant, ensuring safe and reliable PFAS sample preparation.

Scientists from CATRIN and CEET developed a filtration membrane that removes bacteria and toxic heavy metals from water in one step, without energy or chemicals.

A novel persistence-directed testing approach combined with nontarget GC-MS and LC-HRMS revealed a significant fraction of persistent chemicals in offshore oil platform produced waters.
