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. TBT and other Persistent Man-Made Chemical Pollutants Found in Deep-Sea Octopods and Squids New evidence that chemical contaminants are finding their way into the deep-sea food web has been found in deep-sea squids and octopods, including the strange-looking “vampire squid”. These species are food for many deep-diving toothed whales and other predators.  moreOrganotin ban in hull paint begins in September An international convention banning the use of harmful organotin compounds in anti-fouling paints used on the hulls of ships and yachts will enter into force on Sept. 17. Organotin compounds are those based on tin with hydrocarbon substituents. The most often used is tributyltin (TBT). moreEuropean Chemicals Agency opens in Helsinki The new European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is expected to open in Helsinki today, June 3. Ahead of the event, environmentalists stressed that the ECHA should assure the implementation of REACH, the EU chemicals regulation that entered into force one year ago after almost a decade a fierce debate. more |

EVISA's directory of scientist is a versatile tool to facilitate contact with scientists in the field of speciation and related sciences. The directory is fully searchable for names, addresses, research topics etc. You should bookmark this directory as an always up-to-date address book. (In order to hinder SPAM robots for collecting the E-mail accounts, we hide them in a special format). More than 250 active scientists in the field of speciation analysis already joined the directory. Join this great directory that is extensively linked to all tye of other information on this site, such as homepages, conferences and literature. If your entry is still missing in this directory, please contact us at info@speciation.net. more |
