Solvent Screen
What is a Solvent Screen?
Where a number of solvents are used, or you are unsure of the specific ones that require monitoring, this type of screening may be more appropriate because it can test for multiple chemicals.
Urine sampling is available for screening, including benzene, dichloromethane, ethylbenzene, MEK , MIBK, styrene, trichloroethylene, toluene and xylene.
We can either attend site to carry out the screening for you or we can send the kits to you with a free-post envelope to return to the laboratory.
