LGC Standards has introduced a comprehensive set of 13C-labelled reference materials to its Dr. Ehrenstorfer™ line, purpose-built for laboratories using EPA Method 1633. These new ISO 17034-accredited solutions aim to simplify workflows, reduce calibration frequency, and deliver dependable results across a wide range of matrices.

Why This Matters for Your Lab

PFAS testing is critical to public health and environmental safety, with increasing regulatory scrutiny demanding ppt-level detection. Method 1633, jointly developed by the EPA and DoD, is currently the only validated multi-matrix LCMS/MS protocol.

New Product Highlights:

  • EPA Method 1633 EIS Labelled Mixture: 24 analytes, designed for pre-extraction sample recovery.
  • EPA Method 1633 NIS Labelled Mixture: 7 analytes, used before injection for instrument calibration.
  • Wide range of 13C-labelled singles available.

"With EPA Method 1633 now the recommended multi-matrix standard for PFAS analysis, laboratories need stable, traceable isotope labelled materials they can trust," said Dr Kelly Cheshire, Global Segment Manager, LGC Standards. "Our new 13C-labelled mixtures and singles—simplify workflows, enhance quantitation, and help labs save time."

Supporting Smarter, Safer Labs

By using certified, ready-to-use mixtures, labs can save time developing in-house blends and avoid issues related to matrix effects or instrument drift. LGC’s new offerings align perfectly with the needs of modern, high-throughput laboratories.
