MINNEAPOLIS, MN / ACCESSWIRE / February 27, 2024 / Pace® Analytical Services, the preferred provider of regulatory testing and analytical laboratory services, announced today it has received a Technology Merit Award as part of the Environmental Business Journal® 2023 Business Achievement Awards for obtaining a patent for ezHerbicide®, the company's Analytical Herbicide Detection Technology for soil and water samples.

"ezHerbicide is a great example of Pace® innovation and the company's commitment to reducing waste and promoting more sustainable practices," notes Johnny Mitchell, Pace® Chief Technology Officer. "Receiving recognition for this patented methodology from an industry leader like the Environmental Business Journal® is both rewarding and humbling."
The Pace® proprietary technology provides more accurate data up to 50% faster while reducing environmental impact. The ezHerbicide method combines liquid chromatography with a mass spectrometry system to detect herbicide particles at a lower, parts-per-billion level. This process ensures more accurate and precise determination of herbicide forms. Smaller sample sizes mean fewer sample containers, reduced shipping, and less solvents used in the processing of samples. Other traditional analytical techniques for measuring the presence of herbicides are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and have limitations on what can be detected.

The 2023 EBJ awards will be presented in-person at the EBJ Business Achievement Awards banquet at Environmental Industry Summit XXII on April 02-04, 2024 in San Diego, along with CCBJ Business Achievement, Lifetime Achievement, and 50-Year Company anniversary awards.
