Test Description

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been manufactured and used in a variety of industries around the globe. These chemicals are very persistent in the environment – meaning they don’t break down and can accumulate over time. Furthermore, there is also evidence that exposure to PFAS can lead to adverse human health effects. It is therefore important that accurate measurement of these chemical is carried out to minise the risk to consumer health.

Fish are a staple part of many diets and as such effective testing practises are required to determine the presence and levels of these compounds within the product and protect consumers from potentially unsafe levels of these chemicals.

 

Fapas reference materials can be used to standardise your testing processes between proficiency tests, through staff training and instrumentation calibration, but to a higher degree of accuracy than can be achievable with quality control materials alone.

Fapas reference materials are fully traceable, from accredited institutions, so you are sure to achieve valuable insights into your testing ability.
