Vydac 201TP C18 300Å (PAH Analysis) Series

VYDAC 201TP HPLC columns have long been the standard for the analysis of PAHs in Water, Air, Soil, Automotive Exhaust and Food. Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are large organic molecules produced during combustion. Many PAHs are carcinogenic. For this reason the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other government agencies have formulated regulations for monitoring and controlling PAHs and methods for their measurement in air, water, food, and other components of the environment.

The EPA has designated sixteen PAHs as Priority Pollutants. EPA Methods 610 and 550 deal with measurement of PAHs in drinking water. Method 8310 deals with measurement of PAHs in waste water. These EPA methods specify reversed-phase HPLC for measurement of the PAHs.
