On the earth, we need to adapt to conditions of our environment. Within any environment, temperature, soil nutrients, light, humidity and so on, all influence our human and other life. Water is a transparent, nearly colorless, odorless, and tasteless chemical substance, which is the main constituent of earth's oceans, lakes, and streams, and the fluids of most living organisms. It is vital for all known forms of life, even though it provides no organic nutrients or calories.
However, in various forms, life, especially human behavior, in turn, modifies its conditions. A series of human behavior, including industrial waste discharge, sewage discharge, agrichemical application, oil dumping, and landfills of leaching waste, among other sources, will cause water and environment contaminant. Contaminants in water and environment are harmful to our life. It is important to ensure the safety of our drinking water, food or other products for not to exposure to toxins from the environment. With increasing stress on our water resources and environment, understanding unknown contaminations in the water and unexpected environmental pollutants is crucial to building surveillance systems. And there are some techniques with liquid chromatography coupled with various detector options including mass spectrometry (MS) to help us know the contaminations: heavy metals analysis, extractable nutrients analysis and so on.
