Dear Subscriber !
Welcome to the April issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter
This month we are a bit late with our newsletter, since we just came back from analytica trade fair in Munich. Since we attended both PittCon in Orlando and analytica in Munich we are able to compare. Analytica attracted about double the number of visitors compared to PittCon and also had more exhibitors (about 1020 compared to 900 at PittCon). On the other hand PittCon conference with some 2000 technical presentations was one order of magnitude bigger than analytica Conference with about 200 presentations. During both events, manufacturers introduced new instruments of interest with respect to trace element and speciation analysis (see the News below).

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.
UCSC Researchers Discover Methyl Mercury in California Coastal Fog
The fog that hydrates coastal Californian vegetation during the hot summer months is bringing in more than just moisture. A new study by UC Santa Cruz researchers confirm that the fog is a carrier of toxic methylmercury.

Impressions from the Analytica 2012 in Munich
Analytica 2012 in Munich just closed its doors. More than 1000 Exhibitors from 37 nations attracted more than 30.000 visitors from more than 110 countries. With these impressive numbers, Analytica not only was nearly twice the size of PittCon 2012 in Orlando but also saw a nice growth of 40 %.
