The British Mass Spectrometry Society (BMSS) will be holding their 36^th Annual meeting at the University of Birmingham between the 15^th and 17^th September 2015 and ALS Environmental will be providing one of the presentations. The ALS Environmental presentation at the BMSS conference will be given by our Principal Scientist, John Quick , and is entitled "Determination of priority environmental pollutants in water treatment plant effluent: quantifying a drop (or two) in the ocean – depending on MS technique used".

More details on the BMSS event can be found here.

John, who is the author and presenter of the talk at the BMSS event, comments:

It is truly an honour to be asked to speak at the BMSS event in Birmingham, which provides a real opportunity for ALS to highlight the development work we have undertaken as part of the Chemical Investigation Programme 2 (CIP2).

The CIP2 programme has seen ALS develop market leading analytical techniques to reach challenging limits of detection in a range of complex sample matrices.

The ALS technical datasheet on CIP2 can be found here.

John will be providing his talk on priority pollutants at lunchtime on Wednesday 16^th September in the Aston Webb Building. The CIP2 programme is being driven from by the Water Framework Directive and is a nationwide programme to compare the quality of surface waters and effluents across the UK.

More details on the full ALS CIP2 capability can be found here.
