Comprehensive Analysis of Semi-volatile Organic Compounds

At Teklab, we specialize in the precise testing of a wide variety of Semi-volatile Organic Compounds (SVOCs) to meet the rigorous demands of industrial, municipal, and regulatory clients. Our advanced environmental laboratory routinely analyzes soils, waters, and special wastes using state-of-the-art methods, ensuring that every test we conduct is both accurate and reliable. From BNA and PAH testing to pesticides and herbicides, our comprehensive list of semi-volatile methods is designed to address your specific needs.

Understanding that many unique organic compounds exist, and local regulatory agencies may require testing beyond standard EPA or SW846 lists, Teklab performs validation studies to ensure your particular compound can be accurately extracted and analyzed. We pride ourselves on maintaining NELAP accreditation standards, providing you with trustworthy and legally defensible results. Whether your testing requirements are routine or specialized, Teklab’s commitment to quality and precision ensures that your environmental testing needs are met with the highest level of expertise.

Our list of methods include

Teklab’s standard turnaround time is five days. Most of our volatile organic analysis (BTEX, Benzene, SW846 8260B) is completed within three working days of receipt. With six VOA GC/MS we can handle a lot of next day and two day samples. For a premium, same day results may also be available.

We run all of our VOA/VOC and BTEX samples by GC/MS at GC prices. Environmental samples have a tendency to contain matrix interference that can cause problems for GC analysis without the mass spectrometer detector. The GC/MS helps us “look through” all of the matrix interference and find the “fingerprint” for the compounds of interest. Using GC/MS costs us more, but we believe that the increased level of quality assurance and enhanced legal defensibility of our analysis is worth it.

If you are analyzing environmental samples for BTEX or other volatile compounds we recommend that you insist upon GC/MS analysis.

We recommend that you use a NELAP accredited Environmental Testing Laboratory whether your application requires it or not..
