Automated SPE Sample Preparation for PFAS and Ultra-Short-Chain PFAS in Aqueous Matrices

From high-throughput extraction and anti-clogging strategies to up-concentration and LC-MS/MS analysis.
PFAS analysis in aqueous matrices requires robust sample preparation, reliable clean-up, and consistent recoveries - especially as ultra-short-chain PFAS such as TFA are gaining increasing regulatory attention.
In this Velaris webinar, experts from PromoChrom and LCTech will present automated SPE-based workflows for PFAS analysis in drinking water, environmental water, wastewater, and other aqueous matrices compliance with methods such as EPA 533, EPA 537.1, EPA 1633, and EU Method 17892.
The session will cover fully automated SPE with the PromoChrom SPE-03 platform, anti-clogging solutions for challenging samples, optimized PFAS SPE cartridges, and Velaris solutions for the extraction of ultra-short-chain PFAS.
The webinar will also introduce the D-EVA vacuum concentrator for unattended sample concentration and show how automated sample preparation can support high throughput, reproducibility, low background levels.
Presenter: Keith Keegan (Lead Applications Engineer, PromoChrom)
Keith Keegan will focus on the PromoChrom SPE-03 platform for fully automated SPE, workflow efficiency, anti-clogging strategies, real-world laboratory use, and future-oriented tools such as real-time monitoring and remote fleet management.
Presenter: Dr. Suman Kharel (Application Specialist, LCTech)
Suman Kharel will present optimized SPE cartridges for PFAS analysis, Velaris solutions for ultra-short-chain PFAS, performance data for aqueous matrices, and the use of D-EVA for unattended concentration before LC-MS/MS analysis.
