ABSTRACT

In this presentation we will look at some of the data from a recent inter-laboratory study (aka collaborative study) conducted for determining PFAS in biosolids by ASTM D8421. We will look at some of the data but also examine some of the lessons learned. Questions to be answered are: How much flexibility should a method allow? What is this chromatography stuff for anyway? Why bother optimizing methods when you can just correct the data? And much more.
