Pre-treatment products and column consumables for PFAS analysis
The best partner for PFAS analysis! With Waters' products and expertise from sample preparation to analysis, reliable PFAS analysis is achieved!
PFAS have excellent chemical properties such as water and oil repellency and surfactant characteristics, and are used in a wide range of fields. On the other hand, due to their persistence and bioaccumulation, numerous cases of PFAS detection in water quality, the environment, and food have been reported both domestically and internationally. As a result, countries are advancing regulations and monitoring efforts, and there is a demand for more sensitive and accurate measurement technologies. In Japan, a ministerial ordinance was announced to raise the water quality standards for "PFOS" and "PFOA," which will take effect in April 2026. Waters is focusing on the development of methods for analyzing PFAS in trace amounts in various samples. In addition to providing analytical instruments, we also offer insights on sample preparation and blank contamination prevention, as well as service and support for the instruments, along with consulting services tailored to analytical needs.

basic information
■ Pressurized Solid Phase Extraction Concentrator Sep-Pak This device automatically delivers samples to the solid phase extraction column for concentration. There are also options available for use in PFAS pretreatment. ■ Extraction Manifold A vacuum manifold capable of processing up to 20 samples simultaneously. It does not use fluorinated materials in the liquid contact parts, making it safe for PFAS analysis. ■ Solid Phase Extraction Products Oasis WAX Series This mixed-mode solid phase with reverse phase-anion exchange can achieve good recovery rates for various PFAS. We also offer stacked columns suitable for pretreatment of complex matrices, such as Oasis WAX/GCB, GCB/WAX, and the Oasis WAX for PFAS Analysis, which has proven low background. ■ Analytical Columns & Isolator (Retention Gap) Columns The XBridge/BEH columns have a wide usable pH range and low silanol activity, along with robust and user-friendly C18 columns. Additionally, we offer the Atlantis Premier BEH C18AX, suitable for the analysis of ultra-short-chain PFAS.
