PFAS analysis is a routine accredited parameter by GBA Group, for which we have developed a proprietary method. With our HPLC-MS/MS method, we can detect PFAS at concentrations as low as 0.1 µg/kg, which means that we can also easily control the maximum levels for PFAS in certain foods that have come into force in the EU since 01.01.2023.
