PAHs - Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocarbons

We have experience in measuring polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) in water, sediment and soil samples. The general sample preparation and analysis are much the same as for PCBs. Detection and quantification are generally performed by GC/MS. Reporting limits range from low ppb to near 1 ppm for the various compounds involved.

For more information on our GC/MS group analytical capabilities contact Gary Bordson at 217-244-8910.
