ISO 25101 Pesticides and POPs by LC MS MS in Environment Test
The ISO 25101 method is a robust analytical protocol designed to identify, quantify, and qualify pesticides and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in environmental samples. This advanced testing technique leverages Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), which provides high sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy essential for detecting trace levels of these contaminants.
Environmental pollution from pesticides and POPs poses significant risks to human health and ecosystems. The ISO 25101 method ensures reliable data that supports regulatory compliance, environmental monitoring, and risk assessment activities. This service is crucial for industries like agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and waste management, as well as governmental bodies responsible for environmental protection.
The process begins with the collection of representative samples from various environmental matrices such as soil, water, air, and biota. Samples are then prepared through extraction and clean-up procedures to ensure minimal interference during analysis. The LC-MS/MS system separates the analytes based on their chemical properties, followed by precise mass spectrometric detection.
Key features of this service include:
- Comprehensive identification of pesticides and POPs
- High sensitivity down to parts per trillion (ppt) levels
- Quantification in accordance with international standards (ISO 25101)
- Accurate reporting aligned with regulatory requirements
The method is validated for various environmental matrices, ensuring reliable and reproducible results. This service supports industries in meeting stringent environmental regulations while providing insights into contamination sources and trends.
| Environmental Matrix | Typical Analytes Detected |
|---|---|
| Water | Pesticides, PCBs (Polychlorinated Biphenyls), DDT derivatives |
| Air | Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PAHs (Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) |
| Soil | Pesticides, PCBs, Dioxins and Furans |
| Biota | Pesticides, PBDEs (Polybrominated Diphenyl Ethers), PFASes (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances) |
By leveraging this service, clients can ensure compliance with environmental regulations while also gaining valuable insights into the sources and impacts of pesticides and POPs in their environments. This information is vital for developing effective mitigation strategies and improving overall environmental sustainability.
