Advanced Water Quality Techniques Course

The development of a strategic water quality monitoring program is based on prioritizing risks to public safety and economic reality. The development of global standardized methods and protocols for automated water quality monitoring would facilitate international communication of water quality information and comparison of standardized methods and protocols. The three primary methods of water quality monitoring include discrete, mechanical and automated. There is a wide body of literature that publishes accepted standardized methods and protocols for discrete and mechanical methods of monitoring water quality. The case example discussed in this paper is based on the Automated Water Quality Monitoring Field Manual of British Columbia, Canada, which includes chlorophyll, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity and water temperature. Quantitative defined methods and protocols rank the quality of the continuous time-series automated water quality monitoring data. The automated data are verified by a combination of water quality monitoring methods including verification with standard chemical solutions, field analysis and laboratory analysis. Quality assurance and quality control procedures determine the level of the quality of the data. There is a direct relationship between the quality of the data and the cost to obtain that data. Water quality monitoring data is transformed from raw data to finished data for publication to make important decisions that impact public health and public safe....continue

GC
The Quattro micro™ GC fulfills the requirement for a benchtop GC/MS/MS detector to address the significant challenges presented by trace analysis where target compounds are present at low levels, often in complex matrices.
The Quattro micro GC is a tandem quadrupole instrument, recognized as the benchmark for accurate and reproducible low-level quantitative analysis. Quattro micro GC provides exceptional sensitivity, selectivity, stability and linearity to allow accurate and reproducible quantification, even in the presence of the complex matrices and co-extractives encountered in environmental, food and beverage and other trace analysis...link

The Waters® Micromass® MALDI micro MX™ is a new matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MALDI-TOF MS). The MALDI micro offers the simplest route to the highest quality data by MALDI mass spectrometry and features from a novel parallel PSD (‘PSD MX’) capability for confirming protein identification and analysing post-translational modifications. Benefiting from high mass accuracy, resolution and sensitivity, the MALDI micro MX generates excellent results from low abundance samples with a unique range of target plate technologies, specific to your application. This compact system is simple to set up, easy to operate, reliable and provides scientists with accurate molecular weight measurements of proteins, peptides, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, synthetic polymers and small molecules
