Forever Analytical Introduces Middle-Path Approach to PFAS Testing
SOUTH BEND, Indiana (March 23, 2026) — As organizations across industries grapple with the growing urgency of PFAS detection and mitigation, (as outlined by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,) Forever Analytical is advancing a practical, scalable solution: a “middle-path” approach that bridges the gap between costly comprehensive testing and limited spot-checking.
Rather than relying solely on expensive, time-intensive LC-MS/MS analysis for every sample—or risking blind spots with minimal testing, Forever Analytical advocates for screening all samples first. This broad, efficient screening process identifies the most meaningful samples, which are then prioritized for confirmatory LC-MS/MS testing.
A Smarter Way to Scale PFAS Testing
Traditional PFAS testing strategies often force a difficult tradeoff: test everything at high cost, or test selectively and risk missing critical contamination. Forever Analytical’s middle-path approach eliminates that compromise.
By implementing high-throughput screening methods, organizations can:
- Rapidly assess large volumes of samples
- Flag areas of concern with precision
- Allocate LC-MS/MS resources where they matter most
- Reduce overall testing costs without sacrificing confidence
This workflow—Screen → Flag → Lab → Action—enables faster decision-making and more effective risk management across industries, including manufacturing, environmental services, consumer products, and beyond.
From Data Bottlenecks to Actionable Insight
PFAS testing has historically been constrained by laboratory capacity, turnaround times, and cost barriers. Forever Analytical’s approach transforms testing from a bottleneck into a decision-making engine.
“Not every sample needs the same level of analysis,” said a spokesperson for Forever Analytical. “The key is knowing which ones do. Our screening-first strategy ensures that LC-MS/MS is used where it delivers the most value—on the samples that truly matter.”
Innovation on the Horizon: Bringing PFAS Testing to the Field
Forever Analytical is also pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in PFAS detection. The company is actively developing field-deployable, on-site PFAS monitoring systems, designed to bring rapid screening capabilities directly to the point of need.
These next-generation systems aim to:
- Deliver near real-time PFAS insights
- Reduce reliance on centralized lab infrastructure
- Enable immediate, informed decision-making in the field
- Expand access to high-quality testing across more environments
This ongoing innovation reflects Forever Analytical’s commitment to turning PFAS data into real-world action, faster and more efficiently than ever before.
