FEATURE ARTICLE - APPLICATION NOTE:

Determination of Endocrine Disrupting Hormones in Drinking and Wastewater Utilizing the Atlantic™ HLB SPE Disk

Hormones in drinking water are a growing concern, since the presence of these compounds can potentially be linked to serious health hazards such as human developmental and reproductive side-effects.

Hormones are introduced into our environment in several ways. Natural and synthetic hormones that are given to livestock, pass though the animals, runoff into surface water, and leach into underground water supplies. Humans produce and excrete natural hormone waste every day. Waste water flows through to sewage treatment plants, but waste treatment plants are not designed to be able to handle the removal of hormones, so the hormones filter through the treatment process, and can ultimately end up in drinking water.

DID YOU KNOW:

Heavy Duty Water Waste Carboy With Drain

Have you heard about the new heavy duty NalgeneŽ Water Waste carboy for use with the Horizon Technology 3000XL/1000XL "Oil and Grease Machines" and SPE-DEX 4790 extractors. The 20L carboy is much lighter than the older glass version and can be purchased with a drain.

"Customers love the new NalgeneŽ carboy" says Neal Hunter, customer support manger for Horizon Technology. "They really appreciate that they do not have to lift a 50 pound carboy full of water out of the hood anymore, they just turn the spigot and let the neutralized water waste go down the drain."

For more information or to purchase the new carboy, email or call 603-893-3663.

The NalgeneŽ carboy with a drain is part number 50-1686-00. To purchase the carboy without a drain, reference part number 50-2138.
