ASTM D3086 Residue Analysis for Herbicides in Agricultural Runoff Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

The ASTM D3086 standard is a widely recognized test method for analyzing residues of herbicides in agricultural runoff. This standard is developed and maintained by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International, a global leader in standards development. The standard is applicable to various industries, including agriculture, environmental protection, and regulatory agencies.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The use of herbicides in agricultural practices has been regulated by governments worldwide due to concerns over their potential impact on human health and the environment. The European Unions (EU) Water Framework Directive (WFD) sets a limit of 0.1 μg/L for herbicide residues in surface water. Similarly, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates herbicides under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA).

International and National Standards

Several international and national standards govern the testing of herbicide residues in agricultural runoff:

  • ISO 10381-1:2017 - Soil quality - Sampling - Part 1: Guidance on the selection of sampling techniques
  • ASTM D3086-17a - Standard Test Method for Determination of Residue of Herbicides in Agricultural Runoff by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS)
  • EUs WFD and FIFRA
  • National standards, such as Australias NHMRC guidelines and Canadas Pest Control Products Act
  • Standard Development Organizations

    Several organizations contribute to the development and maintenance of standards related to herbicide residues in agricultural runoff:

  • ASTM International
  • ISO (International Organization for Standardization)
  • EUs European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
  • National standard development organizations, such as Australias Standards Australia and Canadas Standards Council of Canada
  • Standards Evolution and Update

    Standards are regularly updated to reflect new technologies, methods, and regulatory requirements. Eurolab stays up-to-date with the latest standards and methodologies to ensure compliance and accuracy.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some relevant standard numbers and their scopes include:
