PFAS Calibration Standards

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are increasingly prevalent in our daily lives. They can be found in numerous places, including non-stick metal cookware, spill-resistance sprays, firefighting foams (anti-film forming foam, AFFF), and even some drinking water sources. While many countries have banned the use and manufacture of certain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances because of their adverse health effects and extreme persistence in the environment, newly modified PFAS compounds are registered constantly, and manufacturing sites have relocated to where there are fewer restrictions.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are being analyzed more now than ever before due to growing concern about human exposure and potential adverse health effects. Restek’s four new multicomponent PFAS calibration certified reference materials (CRMs) feature the most frequently analyzed PFAS compounds, letting you select the formulation that is best suited to the EPA, ISO, EU, EN, DIN, ASTM, or in-house method you use. Additionally, two of these mixes are specifically formulated with the compounds and concentration for EPA 533 and EPA 537.1 drinking water methods, helping you easily comply with method requirements to increase lab throughput.
