Comprehensive PFAS analysis solutions from Avantor®
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have become a significant global environmental and public health issue because of their persistence, bioaccumulation and potential toxicity. More stringent regulatory requirements and increased research into PFAS have created an increased demand for accurate and reliable analytical solutions, including LC-MS grade PFAS free mobile phase additives of water, methanol, acetonitrile and ammonium acetate.

Avantor® works to empower scientists and researchers by providing them with the tools they need to meet the challenges of PFAS analysis. Our extensive portfolio of LC-MS grade PFAS free solvents and vials, caps, and kits for PFAS testing allow us to provide an end-to-end solution for detecting, quantifying and reporting PFAS across many applications.
Whether involved in environmental monitoring, food safety or human health impact studies, Avantor’s comprehensive range of high-performance instruments, consumables and expert support ensures you get the precision and reproducibility you need at every research stage. Avantor can be your trusted partner to advance PFAS research, meet regulatory demands and drive scientific progress in this critical field.
The importance of PFAS testing
PFAS compounds are neurotoxic, have been linked to disrupting reproduction and development and can harm humans and wildlife. PFAS can be found in many environments, including:
- Drinking water
- Soil and wastewater
- Food and food packaging
- Personal care products
- Biosolids
That’s why accurately detecting and quantifying the presence of PFAS is critical to public and environmental safety.

Featured Products
A key requirement for PFAS testing is using PFAS-free container closure systems (CCS), which consist of a container and a sealing method. Avantor offers PFAS free vials and caps are available separately or as kits, providing flexibility for different testing needs. They are constructed using polypropylene (PP) which prevents PFAS contamination and are shipped in PFAS-free packaging.
Choosing the right chemicals is critical for chromatography, particularly in PFAS analysis. Avantor® offers a wide range of solvents and reagents that meet the strict requirements of PFAS analysis and work with many substances.
We offer a wide range of stationary phase selectivities in several formats for effective analyte separation in liquid and gas chromatography. Our GC and GC-MS columns are designed to meet your environmental application needs.
Avantor offers the instrumentation you need to reliably use high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and , ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry in environmental analysis.
High-quality reference materials from Avantor are critical for accurate analytical measurements and effective quality control, so you can be sure you have reliable data for sound decisions.
