Water quality - Determination of selected per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances in drinking water - Method using liquid chromatography/tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)
The proposed document will specify a method for the determination of the sum of selected perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC MS/MS).
The method covers at least the substances needed for the calculation of the 'Sum of PFASs ' according to Annex III, part B, point 3 of the new European drinking water directive (draft). Currently the DWD comprises the perfluoralkyl acids C4 to C13 as well as the perfluoralkyl sulfonic acids C4 to C13.
Other matrices like groundwater and additional substances like HFPO-DA (GenX) and ADONA or perfluoralkansulfonamides (FASA) will be included if possible. The lower application range of the method can vary depending on the sensitivity of the equipment used and the matrix of the sample. For most compounds to which this document applies ≥0,2 ng/l as limit of quantification can be achieved. Actual levels can depend on the blank levels realized by individual laboratory.
The applicability of the method to further substances, not listed in the annex of the DWD, or to further types of water is not excluded, but is intended to be validated separately for each individual case.
Wasserbeschaffenheit - Bestimmung ausgewählter Per- und Polyfluoralkylsubstanzen in Trinkwasser - Verfahren mittels Flüssigkeitschromatographie/Tandem-Massenspektrometrie (LC-MS/MS)
Dieses Dokument legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung des gelösten Anteils ausgewählter Per- und Polyfluoral
kylsubstanzen (PFAS) mittels Flüssigkeitschromatografie-Tandem-Massenspektrometrie (LC MS/MS) in nicht filtriertem Trinkwasser fest, welches weniger als 0,5g/l Feststoffpartikel (SPM) enthält. Die Anwendbarkeit des Verfahrens auf weitere Wasserarten wie Süßwasser (z.B. Grundwasser, Oberflächenwasser) oder
deltes Abwasser muss für jeden Einzelfall separat validiert werden.
Für jede Zielverbindung werden sowohl eventuell auftretende verzweigte Isomere als auch das jeweilige unver
zweigte Isomer zusammen quantifiziert. Die mit dieser Methode ermittelte Stoffauswahl ist repräsentativ für eine Vielzahl von PFAS. Die in Tabelle1 aufgeführten Analyten sind validiert und können mit dieser Methode bestimmt werden. Die Liste in dieser Tabelle kann je nach Zweck und Schwerpunkt der Methode modifiziert werden. Der untere Anwendungsbereich dieser Methode kann abhängig von der Empfindlichkeit der verwen
deten Geräte und der Matrix der Proben variieren. Für zahlreiche Stoffe, für die diese Norm gilt, kann eine Bestimmungsgrenze (LOQ) von 1ng/l erreicht werden. Die Verwendung einer Direktinjektion mit großem
benvolumen, wie in Teil A beschrieben, oder von SPE, wie in Teil B beschrieben, ermöglicht niedrigere LOQs. Analytische Limitierungen können bei kurzkettigen PFAS oder PFAS mit mehr als zehn Kohlenstoffatomen in der Kohlenstoffkette auftreten. Tatsächlich erreichbare LOQs können auch von den Blindwerten abhängig sein, die in den einzelnen Laboren erzielt werden können.
ANMERKUNG Dieses Dokument ermöglicht die Analyse der 20PFAS, die in AnhangIII TeilB Punkt3 der EU- TrinkwasserrichtlinieEU2020/2184 zur Überwachung des maximal zulässigen Parameterwerts von 0,10μg/l für die Summe der PFAS aufgeführt sind.
Darüber hinaus können mithilfe dieses Dokuments auch Alternativen und Ersatzstoffe für diese PFAS- Substanzen analysiert werden.
Qualité de l'eau - Détermination de substances per- et polyfluoroalkylées sélectionnées dans l'eau potable - Méthode par chromatographie en phase liquide couplée à la spectrométrie de masse en tandem (LC-MS/MS)
Le présent document spécifie une méthode de détermination de la fraction dissoute de substances per- et polyfluoroalkylées (PFAS) sélectionnées dans de l’eau potable non filtrée contenant moins de 0,5 g/l de matière en suspension (MES) par chromatographie liquide associée à une spectrométrie de masse en tandem (CL-SM/SM). L’applicabilité de la méthode à d’autres types d’eau tels que les eaux douces (par exemple, eau souterraine, eau de surface) ou, par exemple, les eaux usées traitées, doit être validée séparément pour chaque cas individuel.
Pour chaque composé cible, les isomères ramifiés présents ainsi que les isomères non ramifiés correspondants, sont quantifiés ensemble. Le groupe de substances sélectionné, déterminé par cette méthode, est représentatif d'une vaste gamme de PFAS. Les analytes spécifiés dans le Tableau 1 ont été validés et peuvent être déterminés par cette méthode. La liste donnée dans ce tableau peut être modifiée en fonction des besoins et de l'objectif de la méthode. La limite inférieure d’application de cette méthode peut varier en fonction de la sensibilité de l’équipement utilisé et de la matrice des échantillons. Pour des nombreuses substances pour lesquelles le présent document s’applique, une limite de quantification (LQ) de 1 ng/l peut être atteinte. L’utilisation d’un grand volume en injection directe telle que décrite dans la partie A, ou de la SPE telle que décrite dans la partie B de la méthode, permet d'obtenir des LQ plus basses. Des limites analytiques peuvent survenir avec les PFAS à courte chaîne ou avec les PFAS ayant plus de dix atomes de carbone dans la chaîne carbonée. Les LQ réelles peuvent également dépendre des valeurs de blanc obtenues par les laboratoires individuels.
NOTE Le présent document permet d’analyser les 20 PFAS qui sont répertoriés au point 3 de la Partie B de l’Annexe III de la directive européenne eau potable UE 2020/2184, pour la surveillance de la valeur paramétrique limite de 0,10 μg/l pour la somme des PFAS.
Par ailleurs, des alternatifs et des substituts de ces substances PFAS peuvent également être analysés en utilisant le présent document.

Introduction
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are industrially manufactured chemicals, that contain at least
one fully fluorinated methyl or methylene carbon atom (without any H/Cl/Br/I atom attached to it) [1].
This definition is also chosen in the document (see 3.1). According to the United States Environmental
Protection Agency (U.S. EPA), PFAS is a chemical family consisting of more than 8 000 individual
substances [2]. They are a group of widely used man-made chemicals. The perfluoroalkyl substances are
persistent and can accumulate over time in humans and in the environment. Because of their special
properties and stability, some of these compounds were widely used in industry, as components in
firefighting foams or for consumer products and can now be found ubiquitous as background
contamination in the environment [3].
PFAS - especially the shorter-chain - can enter the water cycle as a result of manufacture, application and
disposal. PFAS are included in the EU Drinking Water Directive EU 2020/2184 [4] as parameter to be
under surveillance with a maximum parametric limit value of 0,10 µg/l for the sum of 20 selected PFAS,
i.e. the perfluorinated carbonic acids as well as the perfluorinated sulfonic acids with chain length of four
to thirteen carbon atoms.
Longer-chain compounds such as PFOA, PFNA, PFHxS, and PFOS accumulate in the blood and the liver,
and their half-lives in the human body amount to several years. In 2020 the European Food Safety
Authority (EFSA) has derived a tolerably weekly intake (TWI) for the sum of the four substances PFOA,
PFNA, PFHxS and PFOS of 4,4 ng/kg body weight based on epidemiological studies and the most sensitive
effect on the human immune system [5].
Due to the low TWI the EFSA recommends for the four substances PFOA, PFNA, PFHxS, and PFOS, the
analysis of at least these four EFSA-PFAS should be possible with a limit of detection far below the
maximum parametric limit value of 0,10 µg/l.
