Perfluoroalkyl compounds (PFAS) in plastic
Determination of selected PFAS compounds using the LC-MS technique.
The analysis package includes the determination of 22 substances including Perfluorooctane sulphonic acid (PFOS), Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), and Perfluorhexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), the use of which is prohibited under the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants.
The following 22 substances are included in the PFAS analysis package:
