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. ESI-MS: The tool for the identification of species LC-ESI-MS is the perfect complementary technique for LC-ICP-MS. While LC-ICP-MS is reducing complex chromatograms to elementograms, this powerful technique is destroying all molecular information and thus cannot help to identify unknown species with the exception of its elemental content. LC-ESI-MS provides molecular information of the species and their fragmentation patterns and thus allows to identify very often even unknown species.  moreFDA Will Review Toxic Tattoo Chemicals The FDA has launched an investigation into the chemicals contained in tattoo and permanent makeup inks, as well as their potential health consequences. moreREACH Update: List of 300 chemicals of very high concern Public interest organisations, via The International Chemical Secretariat yesterday released a list of “high concern” chemicals currently available on the market. The aim is to speed up implementation of REACH, the new EU chemicals law by encouraging companies to make sound substitution decisions. moreTributyltin canned A milestone in the protection of the oceans was reached yesterday as a global ban on tributyltin (TBT) - one of the most toxic chemicals deliberately released into the sea - entered into force. more |
