Analytical Technology Continues Water Monitoring Success by Securing Prestigious Framework Agreement with Wessex Water
Manchester, UK (November 22, 2011) Specialist electrochemical sensor manufacturer Analytical Technology Inc. today announces that it has been awarded a framework agreement to supply dissolved ammonia monitoring systems to Wessex Water.
Following a detailed decision-making process in which Wessex Water evaluated a range of monitors against stringent criteria, Analytical Technology was awarded an AMP 5 framework agreement for its Q45N dissolved ammonia monitor.
Wessex Water is a regional water and sewage treatment business serving an area of the south west of England, covering 10,000 square kilometres including Dorset, Somerset, Bristol, most of Wiltshire and parts of Gloucestershire and Hampshire. The new agreement reaffirms Analytical Technology’s position as a leading supplier of water monitoring instrumentation to the majority of the UK’s largest utility companies, including Thames Water, Yorkshire Water, South West Water, United Utilities, Anglian Water and Severn Trent.
Analytical Technology’s Q45N dissolved ammonia monitor provides a new approach to on-line ammonia monitoring. The system uses reaction chemistry that converts ammonia in solution to a stable monochloramine compound that is equivalent in concentration to the original ammonia level. The chloramine concentration is then measured with a unique amperometric sensor that responds linearly to chloramines, while eliminating interference from excess free chlorine in solution. The Q45N system provides the measurement stability needed to avoid complicated automatic calibration systems and provides excellent repeatability over long periods.

Thermo Fisher Scientific Launches Technical Library of LC-MS Solutions for Quick and Easy Analysis of PPCPs and Pesticides in Water
LC-MS Solutions Reduce Sample Preparation Time While Maintaining Sensitivity and Selectivity
SAN JOSE, Calif. (November 4, 2011) – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, today announced the availability of a new technical library of LC-MS solutions for water analysis, including application information on the detection of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) and pesticides.
The technical library, available at www.thermoscientific.com/lcmswater, is a comprehensive and regularly updated searchable resource containing application notes, webinars, technical posters, articles, case studies, videos and web resources for numerous applications, including the analysis of pesticides, PPCPs, herbicides, endocrine disruptors and perfluorinated compounds.
“We designed the LC-MS technical library to give our customers ready access to water and beverage analysis resources that can help them improve and simplify their laboratory operations,” said Dipankar Ghosh, Ph.D., strategic marketing manager for environmental and food safety solutions at Thermo Fisher Scientific. “Our innovative LC-MS systems support a wide variety of applications for water and beverage sampling, from targeted and non-targeted screening to quantitative and qualitative analyses. We are committed to making our customers’ analyses as easy as possible with solutions that address both existing and future environmental concerns.”
The Thermo Scientific EQuan MAX LC-MS solution is ideal for quick and easy detection of pesticides and PPCPs in surface and drinking water, reducing the time required for sample preparation while delivering the sensitivity and selectivity needed to identify analytes of interest. The EQuan MAX system is an automated, high-throughput LC-MS solution that offers improved productivity and simplified assay development. With its unique online sample enrichment technique, scientists can significantly reduce analysis time - from days to minutes. And its high injection volume (1-20mL) enables higher detection limits than conventional LC-MS/MS analysis.
The online technical library, designed as a knowledge transfer tool, provides customers with access to Thermo Fisher’s vast application expertise and a variety of technical applications for water analysis. The digital resource is available free at http://www.thermoscientific.com/lcmswater.
