The use of organic peroxides for the preparation of homemade explosives is common among terrorists. This study introduces a concept for identifying TATP residues in liquid samples and gas phase, both in the laboratory and on-site.
Interested in EU legislation on #chemicals, and in particular #nanomaterials? Have a look at this publication from my @EU_ScienceHub colleagues:
Is it a nanomaterial in the EU? Three essentials to work it out https://t.co/jMVYLUX4N9
Abstract submission is now open for our Microplastics Workshop for early career researchers: best practices and expert insights. Deadline is April 1. Hope to see you soon in Athens! 🥳
Have you always wondered how best to determine the transport efficiency with spICP-MS? Is it the frequency method? Or the size method? Or according to the dynamic mass flow approach?

A lot of data on #microplastics analysis, and still a lot to do on harmonisation/standardisation. You can download our @EU_ScienceHub report "Current status of the quantification of #microplastics in water - Results of a #JRC / BAM ILC study" here: https://t.co/YxaLz0EmlQ
The #JRC @EU_ScienceHub is offering two positions for Contract Agents in #Ispra, #Italy, within the Research Project “Evaluation, Assessment and Improvement of Process for Recycling and Reusing Innovative Photovoltaic Solar Cells”. Check out details here: https://t.co/mAVvm3AAAn
Susanne BELZ presents the "Results and conclusions of the interlaboratory comparison organised by JRC/BAM" #JRCMPSymp21 @EU_ScienceHub Several methods used to identify/quantify (with different specificity). Scaterred results were reported around the "indicative ranges".
Bert Leemans @EU_ENV presents the "Policy needs for microplastic measurements – perspective from the European Commission". @EUgreendeal. Reliable determination of MP in various matrices required. #JRCMPSymp21; @EU_ScienceHub
