Reliable and Sensitive Detection of Harmful Contaminants in Products and Packaging

Accurately detecting harmful contaminants in consumer products is essential for manufacturers to ensure consumer safety and comply with worldwide regulations. As the rules governing the use of metals and plastics in manufacturing continue to grow and develop, there is also an increasing emphasis on sensitive and specific detection of harmful contaminants in these materials.

Agilent's reliable and easy to use range of ICP-MS, ICP-OES and FTIR systems deliver excellent levels of sensitivity for impurity analysis, ensuring safety and product quality at all production stages. The 7900 ICP-MS and 8800 ICP-QQQ also enable lead and trace metal analysis at industry-leading levels of sensitivity.

In addition, our suite of advanced detection instruments allow manufacturers to quickly and easily validate methods and results to ensure global compliance. The 7890B GC and 5977 GC/MS achieve sensitivity and selectivity for phthalate analysis while FTIR Spectroscopy, Liquid Chromatography and LC/MS systems enable cost-effective, robust and reliable results for product quality.
