Agilent Technologies Inc.

Agilent Technologies is a global analytical instrumentation company supporting over 285,000 laboratories across 110 countries with comprehensive water and environmental testing solutions. For metals analysis, Agilent offers the 7850 and 7900 ICP-MS instruments, available as the pre-configured EPA 200.8 Water Analyzer package that includes hardware, ICP Go browser-based software, MassHunter data analysis with predefined EPA correction equations, and professional installation. The 7850 achieves detection limits well below EPA 200.8 requirements (e.g., lead at 0.0005 micrograms per liter versus the EPA threshold of 0.015), while the 7900 adds the ORS4 collision/reaction cell with helium mode for polyatomic interference removal in NPDES wastewater compliance workflows. For organic contaminant analysis, Agilent provides the 5977B and 5977C GC/MS systems for semivolatile compounds per EPA Method 8270, the 7000E and 7010D GC/TQ triple quadrupole systems, the 7250 GC/Q-TOF for non-targeted screening of volatile PFAS, and the 6495C LC/TQ triple quadrupole for PFAS quantification achieving part-per-quadrillion detection limits in drinking water per EPA Methods 533 and 537.1. Agilent also offers complete PFAS workflow solutions including PFC-free HPLC conversion kits, WAX SPE cartridges, and MRM databases covering over 100 PFAS compounds.
