New Additions for PFAS Standards

January 12th, 2023

Stay up to date with the newest PFAS standards from AccuStandard. Introducing new and updated PFAS CRMs for ASTM methods, ISO 21675, Massachusetts PFAS Standard and additional single component FTOH and FTCA standards.

New ASTM Method Testing Standards

ASTM Method D7968 - PFAS in Soil

This test method has been developed by USEPA region 5 through ASTM, D19 committee for the determination of PFAS in a soil matrix using LC-MS/MS. D-7968 CRM is prepared to contain all 21 target native PFAS compounds.

ASTM Method D7979 - PFAS in Non-potable Waters

Our ASTM D7979 PFAS in Wastewater Standard can be used to qualify and quantify PFAS compounds in water matrix using LC-MS/MS. The D7979 CRM is formulated in include all the 21 target PFAS native compounds.


New ASTM Method Testing Standards

ASTM Method D8421 - PFAS in Aqueous Matrices

ASTM test method D8421 is for determination of PFAS in aqueous matrices by co-solvation and using LC-MS/MS technique. Our three Target Spike mix CRMs include the 44 native PFAS listed in the test method at a varied concentration.

ISO Method 21675 - PFAS in Water by LC-MS/MS

Our new ISO21675 Set includes our updated Native PFAS Standard and Perfluorooctadecanoic acid (PFODA) single component standard concentrated at 2µg/mL in Methanol. This CRM supports the testing for PFAS in non-filtered water such as drinking water and wastewater using LC-MS/MS and according to the international standard.


New ASTM Method Testing Standards

Massachusetts PFAS Standard

This Massachusetts PFAS CRM is formulated to include compounds published in the PFAS public drinking water standard by the Massachusetts DEP. These compounds, also known as PFAS6, have been targeted due to their high abundance in drinking water sources and the adverse health effects associated with exposure.


New Single Component Standards

Our new product additions also include Single Component CRMs for Fluorotelomer Alcohols (FTOHs) and Fluorotelomer Carboxylic Acids (FTCAs).

Many of the short chain FTOHs and FTCAs were thought to be a safer alternative for long chain PFAS. This resulted in their widespread use in textiles, leather, paper products and other consumer goods. As more toxicity data emerge, both of these classes of compounds have been under evaluation for their environmental and human health impact.
