I've used them and been happy with the report. Happy to share if requested.



Does it report on microplastics too? What about still "unofficial" PFAS


https://gosimplelab.com/ZM7S1O is my report. I found their UI/UX quite good, and very comparable to a 23andMe experience. Pleasantly surprised to say there were zero attempts at ongoing subscription upsells, reengagement, virality etc.

Since my collection was based on a plastic bottle, I doubt microplastics would be part of the report. However the same lab offers other tests with different collection containers and different assays.

since the back end testing and reporting is done through gosimplelab you might wish to look at their offerings more directly https://gosimplelab.com/solutions/pfas


Doesnt seem to have pfas in any of the standard city water test batteries. I'd also like to see microplastics and medicines (hormones, antibiotics etc) in a test.

I think PFAS is actually hard to test for because you'd have to remove any added fluoride salts etc, and then use spectrometry. And microplastics is expensive to test for because it requires human evaluation through a microscope


thank you
