EVISA is keeping you updated with what is going on in speciation analysis. In this section you will find news about the most current research results, about trends, legal issues and informations from manufacturers in the field of speciation analysis. With all the links to further information and publications the News archive is a valuable collection of "hot topics" in speciation analysis. We continuously update even former news with new links and information so that all news are actual all the time. Bangladeshi scientists get prestigious award for arsenic filter National Academy of Engineering Announces Winners of $1 Million Challenge to Provide Safe Drinking Water WASHINGTON -- The National Academy of Engineering (NAE) announced yesterday 1st of February the winners of the 2007 Grainger Challenge Prize for Sustainability. The contest sought innovative solutions for removing arsenic from drinking water that is slowly poisoning tens of millions of people in developing countries. Three prizes will be awarded from a field of more than 70 entries.  moreCanadian Researchers Draft Recipe for Human Metabolome Researchers at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton, Canada, have announced the completion of the first draft of the human metabolome, the chemical equivalent of the human genome. moreAgilent Technologies joins University of Cincinnati to study impact of metal species in biology and the environment Agilent Technologies and The University of Cincinnati announced January 19th the opening of a center at which research teams throughout the Americas will study the impact of metals on biological systems. The University of Cincinnati/Agilent Technologies Metallomics Center of the Americas will research such applications as the role of metal compounds as predictors of stroke damage and new detection methods for chemical warfare agents. moreHuman metabolism of arsenic is altered by fasting People who fast during religious festivals excrete more of a toxic form of arsenic in their urine from the body than those who eat at regular intervals. more |
