The Total Oxidizable Precursor (TOP) Assay is an oxidative sample pre-treatment method aimed at converting the PFAS (Perfuoroalkyl Substances) within a sample into the stable perfluoroalkyl acids that can be quantified by conventional LC/MS/MS analytical techniques, thereby providing a greater understanding of the extent of PFAS within a sample. The oxidation is achieved by hydroxyl radicals, formed under heated alkaline conditions from prescribed amounts of potassium persulfate (KPS) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) added to the sample prior to incubation.
