California Department of Public Health (CDPH) approves Weck Laboratories for Dioxin analysis of drinking water samples!  Weck Laboratories can now test for the 2,3,7,8-TetraChloroDibenzoDioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) isomer for drinking water compliance monitoring.  The determination is accompplished by EPA test method 1613B with a reporting limit of 5 picograms per liter (pg/L)...

Weck Laboratories has completed the process for approval to perform environmental analysis for Acrylamide by liquid chromatography (LC) separation and both ultaviolet (UV) and tandem mass spectrometry (MSMS). The LCMSMS detection limit is 0.1 ug/L.

Weck Laboratories is a full service environmental laboratory and one of the first and few laboratories in the nation to receive a full “pending approval” status from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for monitoring 26 new contaminants in drinking water. Testing for these new contaminants under the Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule 2 (UCMR2) requires the use of newly developed methods for which Weck Laboratories has demonstrated proficiency with a 100% correct score. Monitoring will be required of representative, selected public water systems.

Weck Laboratories has received approval of it’s UCMR2 application! Proficiency Test (PT) samples have arrived at the laboratory. The USEPA has proposed to monitor 26 unregulated contaminants using newly developed analytical methods, as a requirement of the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). Weck Laboratories has developed those methods and intends to offer them to clients for compliance with the Rule. All six methods listed under both the Assessment Monitoring (List 1) and the Screening Survey (List 2) will be analyzed in-house at Weck Laboratories!
