To assist with identifying potential asbestos in drinking water, EMSL Analytical, Inc. provides testing via TEM EPA Method 100.2 (Asbestos in Drinking Water) and 100.1 (Asbestos in Water). To learn more about Asbestos in Water Testing, visit https://lnkd.in/eDMtvSAX.

Asbestos in the water supply at certain levels constitutes a health risk to the public. In 1974, the EPA passed the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) to determine the level of contamination in drinking water to which no adverse health effects are likely to occur. Asbestos was added as a contaminant to the SDWA in 1992 and was added to the National Primary Drinking Water Regulations (NPDWR) in 1995.

In a recent news story, several types of candy were tested for metals. Results reported a large number of candy analyzed had elevated levels or arsenic. This is only one example of metals being found in food we consume. Testing products during production can identify contaminants before they reach consumers.

Winter Storm Fern covered much of the U.S. in snow and ice. It is important to understand what potential winter related IAQ issues you may encounter as the snow and ice melt or during the frigid temperatures. The extreme cold can cause pipes to burst, leading to water damage and mold growth within a property. Older building materials that break or are damaged may contain asbestos or lead, exposing occupants to these contaminants.

To address winter weather related issues, EMSL provides Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Testing. To learn more, visit https://lnkd.in/ehRvCGEG

Asbestos contamination may be found in dust from a variety of sources. Asbestos may be present due to a poorly performed remediation in the past or from decaying building materials. The asbestos found in dust generally presents itself in very small unbound fibers, which can be released into the air when the dust is disturbed. An alternative for dust sampling may be aggressive air testing, which is not always a practical solution.

There are two commonly used ASTM methods available for sampling settled dust for asbestos analysis. These methods are used to sample and analyze settled dust from a given area:

ASTM D5755 (Micro-vacuum Method)
ASTM D6480 (Wipe Method)
