Evaluation of Analytical Methods for EDCs and PPCPs via Inter-Laboratory Comparison

Abstract

This project evaluated the performance of several existing analytical methods for the analysis of EDCs and PPCPs by multiple laboratories in various water matrices and established performance-based QA/QC criteria and guidelines to help utilities assess the most appropriate use of the methods. Published in 2012.

As of August 2023, the web tool has been discontinued.
