PFAS chemicals are an emerging concern that may lead to serious health problems according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). They are present in the environment around us, this includes where we live, work, cook and eat, the products we use, and even the water we drink. Knowledge of the PFAS levels in blood can help better understand how environment impacts on individuals.

This is an environmental exposure test used for research purposes. Since PFAS chemicals are an emerging concern, the determination of toxicity levels/thresholds is still in progress. There is currently no clinical diagnosis or treatment recommendations specific to elevated PFAS levels. This information serves as an indicator of environmental exposure to PFAS. There are resources available with information regarding sources of PFAS and ways to reduce your exposure.

Self-collection test kits provide an all-in-one solution that includes all the essentials for collection, transport, and storage, allowing self-collection of samples at home or work, and direct submission to the laboratory. Samples are collected via a finger prick requiring minimal sample volumes. Kits include lancets and instructions for pediatric and adult use. This is not a medical device and is intended for biomonitoring and research purposes only.
