PepsiCo Uses Dionex Ion Chromatography Instruments for the Analysis of Contaminants in Water
March 2010, Sunnyvale, CA-Dionex
Corporation is pleased to announce that PepsiCo International in
Cork, Ireland uses the Dionex ion chromatography (IC) systems to
test their bottled water and the treated and raw water used in
their beverages for contaminants like bromate and oxyhalides as
well as common anions and cations.
Contaminants in drinking water, whether
they are environmental or produced by the process of disinfection,
impact the quality of the water, a major concern for the beverage
industry. PepsiCo's use of Dionex Reagent-Free™ IC systems brings
many benefits like ease of use, no eluent preparation (Just Add
Water!), no reagent preparation, waste reduction, reproducibility,
and low detection limits.
Because the system is always on and
always ready, analysis time is reduced for Pepsi. Another big
benefit for Pepsi is having readily available EPA methods for the
analysis of contaminants and ions.
In most countries, drinking water must
be disinfected, to remove microorganisms and ensure it is safe to
drink. However, reactions between disinfectants and organic matter
in water can produce disinfection by-products (DBPs), such as
bromate, oxyhalides, and haloacetic acids that are dangerous even
at trace concentrations. Trace analysis of DBPs and contaminants
can be difficult because of the high levels of matrix ions that are
often found in water. Dionex provides a variety of system and
application solutions to improve and simplify trace determination
of contaminants in water.

- G:BOX “Plug and play” lighting module
In recent years there has been a large increase in the number of
imaging applications using the G:BOX. In addition to the UV, white
light and chemiluminescence applications there are now a vast array
of coloured fluorescent dyes being used - Alexa fluors, Cy dyes, Q
Dots, Dylites etc, etc. These dyes require a range of
different excitation wavelengths and so Syngene and our competitors
have produced a number of different solutions.
