EMSL Analytical, Inc. Offers Comprehensive Testing Solutions for PFAS Contamination in Food

EMSL Analytical, Inc., is addressing growing concerns about per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in food by offering advanced testing solutions to identify and quantify some of these significant harmful compounds. PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals widely used in various industrial applications and consumer products, known for their persistence in the environment and potential adverse health effects.
