PFAS Water Analysis
Drinking water is usually analyzed for primary (e.g., toxic substances from various sources) and secondary contaminants (e.g., taste, smell). Not only drinking water needs to be monitored. Controlling municipal wastewater treatment plants as well as industrial wastewater ensures quality and sustainability of our ground water. Sapphire North America offers a large variety of perfluorocompounds (PFCs) for water analysis.

Drinking Water Quality – Off-Flavor Compounds
Off-flavors of drinking water are often taints of either products from microorganisms or from food products. Some algae, particularly blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) such as Anabaena, produce 2-methylisoborneol (MIB) together with other odorous chemicals such as geosmin. These two compounds typically affect the flavor of drinking water or fish living in that water. Geosmin has a distinct earthy flavor and taste, while MIB gives a musty and earthy flavor to water and is often associated with algal blooms.
Item No. Name Name Flavor
3887.11-100-ME 1(+/-)-2-Methylisoborneol Musty, earthy
10949.11-100-ME (-)-2-Methyl-d3-isoborneol Musty, earthy
