Herbicide and Pesticide Analysis
First and foremost, when starting a search, the list of pesticides and herbicides can seem overwhelming. Herbicides are chemicals used to manipulate or control undesirable vegetation. Herbicide application occurs most frequently in row-crop farming, where they are applied before or during planting to maximize crop productivity by minimizing other vegetation.
To help you navigate compliance, we’ve highlighted some commonly requested analytes that fall outside the standard Chlorinated Pesticides (SW 8081) and Chlorinated Herbicides (SW 8151) lists.
At Teklab, we analyze these compounds using the industry-verified SW 8270 SIM (Selective Ion Monitoring) method. This advanced technique enables us to achieve the necessary reporting levels with the precision and confirmation provided by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry.
Additionally, we offer EPA Method 8141 upon request for your specific analysis needs.
It’s important to note that many compounds may go by 3–4 different names, which can be confusing for those unfamiliar with EPA standards and methodologies. Send us your list, and we’ll help you navigate the guidelines and requirements with ease.
