Introducing PFAS Exposure™, the First Self-Collection Blood Sampling Kits with Taryn McKnight of Eurofins

Introducing PFAS Exposure™, the First Self-Collection Blood Sampling Kits with Taryn McKnight of Eurofins.  Learn how you can accurately obtain PFAS blood sampling results from the comfort of your home or place of work using their new sampling kit called PFAS Exposure™.  Eurofins Environment Testing has devised a way to self-collect a sample of PFAS in blood, traditionally requiring a blood draw. This departure represents a leap forward in Biomonitoring for Exposure to PFAS in blood. Their kit is the first of its kind and uses a simple finger prick.  With serum equivalent conversions provided, their results can be directly compared to the national averages published by the CDC. Plus this test method detects 47 PFAS compounds in whole blood.  Best of all, this new PFAS Exposure™ sampling kit is extremely affordable and reliable.
