Abstract Potential impurities such as nitrate, sulfate, nitrite, fluoride, formate, phosphate and oxalate were detected up to an analyte-to-excess ratio (ATER) of 1:3 · 105 using an online two-dimensional isotachophoretic system. With the developed electrolyte system, consisting of two different leading electrolytes, limits of detection (LOD) in the nmol/L range were realised by conductivity detection. These optimized conditions were applied to the determination of these anionic impurities in different types of acetic acid and acetate salts in order to evaluate and to verify their quality. Without sample preparation and or preconcentration, we were able to determine the above mentioned analytes in the range of 0.00032–0.001% within 20 min. The results were compared with those obtained by classical methods.
