Air Testing, PFAS
Merit Laboratories is pleased to announce its participation in the 2026 International Conference on Remediation of Chlorinated and Recalcitrant Compounds (Battelle Chlorinated Conference), taking place May 31 – June 4, 2026, in Fort Worth, Texas. Recognized globally as one of the leading conferences for environmental remediation professionals, the event brings together scientists, engineers, consultants, regulators, and industry leaders to advance solutions for complex environmental challenges.
ISM, Incremental Sampling ISM, Merit Laboratories
Incremental Sampling Methodology (ISM) is an increasingly accepted approach for characterizing soil contamination and reducing the uncertainty commonly associated with traditional discrete sampling methods. By collecting and combining multiple increments from a defined area, ISM is designed to provide a more representative estimate of mean contaminant concentrations within a designated decision unit.
ISM
Incremental Sampling Methodology (ISM) is increasingly used across the environmental industry to evaluate soil contaminants. Unlike traditional discrete sampling, ISM collects numerous soil increments that are combined, processed, and subsampled to produce more representative measurements of contaminant concentrations within a defined area.
PFAS, EPA
Merit Laboratories is proud to have been a participating laboratory in a multi-laboratory validation study to support a new ultra-short chain PFAS drinking water method under development by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This study represents an important step toward standardizing the measurement of ultra-short chain PFAS in drinking water and other aqueous environmental matrices.
DoD, DoD ELAP, Merit Certification
Merit Laboratories is proud to announce an expansion of its PFAS accreditation through the Department of Defense Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (DoD ELAP), reinforcing our commitment to delivering high-quality, compliant PFAS data for defense and federal projects. Merit Laboratories’ DoD ELAP scope now includes the following compounds analyzed by EPA Method 1633 (LC/MS/MS).
