• TestAmerica participates in many studies conducted in and around Department of Energy plants located in Oak Ridge, TN and Kansas City, MO. Concerns over PCB levels contained in native fish tissues have resulted in the establishment of several biomonitoring studies. TestAmerica began supporting the projects during the 2006 monitoring event analyzing more than 300 fish and clams over the last three years for PCB aroclors by SW 8082 and for PCB congeners by 1668A. Dragonflies were also analyzed for PCB congeners by 1668A.

• TestAmerica has supported on-going efforts at the Savannah River Site (SRS), providing analytical services for chemical, physical and radiochemical analyses on a variety of different matrices including soil, sediment, sludge, groundwater, surface water, waste matrices and building materials such as wood, concrete, metals, and painted materials as required. All analyses are performed under strict adherence to the DOE Quality Systems for Analytical Services (QSAS) Version 2.4.

• TestAmerica performs analysis of urine and fecal tissue for routine and rapid turnaround times to support a large scale personnel exposure monitoring program. Analysis is conducted for the following isotopes: Americium, Plutonium, Strontium, Thorium, Tritium and Uranium (Isotopic). In support of this program, TestAmerica supplies a contract specific customized data report and EDD format.
