Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) analysis in water and soils is a crucial testing for environmental laboratories that work to safeguard the environment and public health, by monitoring contamination levels in compliance with local legislation. Advancements in analytical techniques and technologies drive continuous improvement in environmental monitoring capabilities. Laboratories that invest in state-of-the-art instrumentation and methodologies enhance their capacity to detect regulated and emerging contaminants, improve data accuracy, and meet evolving regulatory requirements.
This eBook covers advanced technology available for VOC analysis, demonstrating features and benefits of different sampling techniques, including:
- Purge & Trap (P&T)
- In-tube extraction (ITEX) with refocusing of very volatile compounds
- Solid Phase Micro Extraction (SPME)
- Static headspace with automated calibration standard dilution and ISTD/Surrogate addition
In combination with highly sensitive GC-MS, new solutions are demonstrated to face growing workload, improve data quality, and increase overall laboratory efficiency.
This eBook comprises the application notes and case study below:

Case Study
Eurofins South Bend Indiana Lab standardizes on TRACE 1600 Series Gas Chromatograph (GC) Systems for Water Analysis
At the Eurofins South Bend, GC-ECD, GC-MS and GC-MS/MS techniques are essential to identify and quantify volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, and synthetic organic compounds (SOCs) in municipal drinking water per the methods U.S. EPA 500 series, analyzing several hundreds of water samples every day.
