Plastic itself is largely inert. The additives are the chemicals that migrate.
Bisphenols and phthalates are endocrine disruptors - they mimic or block hormones and are linked to reproductive, developmental, and metabolic effects, with particular concern for fetuses, infants, and children.
Brominated flame retardants persist and bioaccumulate, and heavy metals such as lead and cadmium add neurological and organ toxicity. The additives - not the polymer - are what leach into food, drinks, and dust.
Place a representative piece of the plastic item into the provided vial using the included gloves, seal, and return per the instructions.
The plastic is solvent-extracted to pull out additives, which are then run across three instruments: GC-MS for volatile/semi-volatile organics, LC-MS/MS for bisphenols and phthalates, and ICP-MS for heavy metals.
Independently operated, with no ties to filter or remediation companies. Every sample is analyzed by an accredited partner laboratory under EPA-referenced methods, with a documented chain of custody — and your data is yours.
