Pesticides and Herbicides
 |
We have experience in analyzing selected organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides, triazine and chlorinated herbicides, and various metabolites/breakdown products of these groups. These compounds have been determined in diverse matrices including water, soil, sediment, and plant and animal tissues. Analysis can be performed by GC/MS or, when appropriate, by GC/ECD with confirmation by GC/MS. Since this is such a varied group of analytes, instrument detection limits vary from sub-ppb to low ppm levels. Sample reporting limits vary with the analyte and with the amount of sample extracted.
For more information on our GC/MS group analytical capabilities contact Gary Bordson at 217-244-8910.
