Method update: Analysis of Quaternary Ammonium Herbicides in Water
Feb 3, 2022
ALS Environmental is committed to technical and methodological advancements and continuous improvement in our analytical services. Over recent months the ALS Water division has been undertaking a review of a range of Herbicides in water analysis with a view to providing our clients with more robust and reliable analytical data.
We are delighted to inform you that we have revalidated our UKAS accredited method to DWTS for testing Diquat (alongside Mepiquat and Chlormequat) by LCMS-MS in surface, ground and treated drinking water matrices using SPE extraction. This new method will replace the current WPC69 method.
