Business Wire
Eurofins Environment Testing in Sacramento, California in
partnership with EPA Region 10 worked with EPA’s Office of Water to
publish Draft Method 1634, an analytical procedure to test for
6PPD-Quinone in surface water and stormwater.
Used for more than six decades as an additive in tires, 6PPD
(chemical name: N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine)
is also found in other rubber products such as footwear, synthetic
turf infill, and synthetic playground surfaces. 6PPD reacts with
ozone in the air to form 6PPD-quinone (6PPD-q), which EPA-funded
research in 2020 found to be linked to the deaths of coho salmon in
urban Puget Sound streams. Exposures occur when runoff containing
the chemical is washed from parking lots and streets into streams
and other bodies of water.
With extensive experience in specialty services, Eurofins
Environment Testing is proud to partner with EPA in the delivery of
Draft Method 1634. To view the 6PPD-Quinone draft method, visit
