Dioxins & Furans
Dioxins & Furans Testing in Food
Dioxins and furans are persistent, bioaccumulative compounds requiring ultra-trace detection (parts-per-quadrillion levels). They partition strongly to sediments and accumulate in aquatic organisms, making seafood monitoring critical.
SGS has conducted dioxin and furan analysis since 1989 and supports:
- Food and feed testing
- Drinking water programs
- Omega-3 supplement testing protocols
- Fish tissue monitoring
- Drinking water and NPDES compliance
- Stack emissions (Method 23)
- Natural resource damage assessments and TMDL programs
Our high-capacity magnetic sector and tandem mass spectrometry platforms deliver defensible data suitable for regulatory and litigation support.
