PFAS Testing Resources


Commonly referred to as “forever chemicals,” PFAS are ubiquitous and environmentally persistent industrial chemical contaminants found in a variety of matrices, especially water and food. Due to PFAS persistence and their ability to contaminate sensitive matrices, ultra-sensitive testing methods are critical for quantification and screening. Here, Labcompare has compiled various resources from manufacturers, subject matter experts and partners to bring users the latest in PFAS research trends. Explore new techniques and products, read advice and best practices from experts, consult peer reviews on popular products, and more.

PFAS Documentaries

  • Forever Chemicals: Preparing and Modernizing for Proposed National PFAS Regulations Documentary

    Growing research has revealed not only the persistence and bioaccumulation of PFAS, but also the wide scope of PFAS pollution and its potential impact on human health. Through compelling interviews with chemists, researchers and environmental specialists, this documentary highlights and discusses the need for sensitive testing and thorough analysis to not only meet regulations, but to ensure the health of humans.

  • Forever Chemicals: Contamination in Food and Packaging

    In February 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that substances containing PFAS used as grease-proofing agents on paper and paperboard for food contact use are no longer being sold by manufacturers into the U.S. market. This phase-out eliminates the primary source of exposure to PFAS from food contact uses; but, there are others. Due to PFAS persistence—and ability to contaminate sensitive matrices—ultra-sensitive testing methods are critical for quantification and screening. Through interviews with chemists, researchers and environmental specialists, this documentary discusses how PFAS infiltrates the food supply chain, and how regulations, requirements and methods have all been enacted to help ensure the health and safety of humans of all ages.
