Biomonitoring
In the field of human biomonitoring (HBM), we offer a comprehensive range of LC-MS and GC-MS-based methods tailored for the precise quantitative determination of environmental chemicals and their specific metabolites in various biological matrices, including urine, serum, plasma and saliva. Our commitment to accuracy and precision is what sets us apart. Our methods are routinely used in biomonitoring campaigns, allowing us to comprehensively assess both occupational and non-occupational exposures to environmental chemicals. At the heart of our services is a commitment to improving understanding of how these substances interact with the human body, ultimately promoting a healthier and more sustainable future.
