Description

This specialized lab panel is designed to detect and measure trace levels of pesticides, herbicides, and related chemical compounds in lake water. These pollutants—often introduced through agricultural runoff, lawn care, and stormwater—can persist in aquatic environments and pose serious risks to fish, aquatic plants, and overall lake health. By analyzing for common and legacy contaminants like atrazine, simazine, alachlor, and methoxychlor, this test provides early insight into potential sources of pollution, helping you manage water quality, support healthy ecosystems, and promote safer recreation.

What problem does this solve?

You are looking to test your lake for high-priority pesticide and chemical contaminants, including:

Alachlor (Herbicide): Agricultural herbicide linked to plant damage and fish toxicity.

Atrazine (Herbicide): Long-lasting contaminant known to disrupt aquatic ecosystems.

Benzo(a)pyrene (Petroleum Compound): Carcinogenic fossil fuel byproduct toxic to aquatic life.

Bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate (Plasticizer): Leaches from plastic; disrupts aquatic growth and hormones.

Bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (Plasticizer): Toxic to aquatic development and potentially persistent in sediment.

Hexachlorobenzene (Pesticide): Banned but long-lived in the environment; bioaccumulates in fish.

Hexachlorocyclopentadiene (SVOC): Volatile and acutely toxic to aquatic organisms.

Methoxychlor (Pesticide): Legacy pesticide with estrogen-mimicking effects in fish and wildlife.

Simazine (Herbicide): Common in runoff; blocks photosynthesis in aquatic plants and destabilizes habitats.
