Analysis parameters

Testing spectrum


Our test methods accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 can be found here:
DAkkS Accreditation Attachment

As part of our flexible accreditation, we offer a variety of other accredited parameters. The current list of our flexibly accredited parameters can be found here:
flexibly accredited parameters

Frequently requested parameters

  • Heavy metals (e.g. lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel, uranium), semimetals (e.g. arsenic), elemental analysis
  • Cations (e.g. Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Al; ammonium) and anions (e.g. nitrate, nitrite, phosphate)
  • Sum parameters (e.g. TOC, AOX, COD, BOD)
  • Routine parameters (e.g. pH, conductivity, temp, acid capacity, turbidity, coloration).
  • Volatile organic compounds (e.g. VOC, SVOC, MVOC).
  • Chlorinated hydrocarbons (e.g. CHC, THM)
  • Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs, EPA PAHs)
  • Perfluorinated compounds (e.g. PFOS, PFOA)
  • Chlorinated aromatic compounds (e.g. PCBs, dioxins)
  • Pesticides (e.g. herbicides, insecticides)
  • Other parameters (e.g. surfactants, dissolved oxygen)
  • Microbiological parameters (e.g., colony count at 22°C and colony count at 36°C, E.coli, coliform bacteria, enterococci, somatic coliphages, Legionella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa)
  • Limnological parameters (e.g., plankton, "algae," cyanobacterial toxins, chlorophyll).
  • Moulds (overview analyses, diagnostics)
  • Asbestos (e.g. chrysotile asbestos, weakly and firmly bound asbestos) and artificial mineral fibers (KMF)

We can only give you a brief overview of our range of examinations here. Please ask us in each individual case whether we have the parameters you require in our portfolio.
