Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.PAHsOrganic CompoundsOrganic compounds are carbon-based molecules that form the building blocks of life. These include hydrocarbons, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Understanding organic compounds is crucial in chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology. Explore organic compound analysis tools in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.DioxinsDioxins are a group of persistent environmental pollutants (POPs) that comprise of chlorinated organic chemicals. These airborne particles can deposit on plants or in water, and animals can accumulate these highly toxic molecules in their fat.
