EPA 3535A Solid-Phase Extraction for Pesticide Analysis in Liquid Samples: A Comprehensive Guide

The European Unions Regulation (EC) No. 396/2005 sets maximum residue levels (MRLs) for pesticides in food and feed, while the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enforces MRLs under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). The EUs Framework Directive (93/42/EEC) and the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 require manufacturers to ensure the safety of their products by demonstrating compliance with these regulations.

International Standards:

  • ISO 17025:2005 - General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories

  • EN 14636:2006 - Solid-phase extraction for pesticide analysis in water

  • TSE (Turkish Standard Institution) 1/10.01.06.04-3:2007 - Solid-phase extraction for pesticide analysis in foodstuffs

    • National Standards:

  • EU Directive 2009/128/EC on the Sustainable Use of Pesticides

  • US EPAs Environmental Protection Agency Act (EPA Act)

  • UK Food Labelling Regulations 1996

    • Standard Development Organizations and Role:

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), European Committee for Standardization (CEN), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) are the primary standard development organizations.

    Standards Evolution and Update:

    New standards are developed based on emerging technologies, scientific research, and regulatory requirements. Updates occur to reflect changes in regulations, new methodologies, or improved testing techniques.
