Welcome to the January issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter.
We just came back from the Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry in Florida. While in general speciation analysis has less attention in the US compared to Europe, this time it was strongly visible. Out of the 114 lectures about 31 were devoted to speciation analysis in the widest sense and 33 posters out of 183 were discussing speciation related topics. Nanoparticle characterization was for the first time a topic in the focus of many presentations and even instrument manufacturers already came up with commercial solutions. Agilent used the conference to introduce its new 7900 ICP-MS with enhanced sensitivity (see the News below).
The next European Winter Conference on Plasma Spectrochemistry will take place 2015 in Münster, Germany and will be organized in cooperation with EVISA (see the conference web site).

A new study finds: Inorganic mercury stays in the brain for years if not decades
Evidence from modeling studies based on autopsy tissue data point to a half-life of inorganic mercury in human brains of several years to several decades, contradicting older radioisotope studies that estimated half-lives in the order of weeks to months in duration.
