As knowledge of the potential damage caused by the chemicals we use in daily life becomes greater, detection limit requirements become lower and lower.
Are herbicide detection limits getting you down?
In 2015 the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) published a report which stated that glyphosate was probably carcinogenic to humans. In some countries including the USA and EU member states, there are already limit values in effect for weed killers that contain glyphosate and AMPA.
Using ion chromatography and pulsed amperometric detection provides a viable and inexpensive method to analyze glyphosate at the limit values required by regulatory bodies.
