Measuring the concentration of nanoparticles in liquids is important for a number of reasons.
Whether it's (i) to support regulatory requirements (in particular those for medical devices - MDs - where assessment of the possible release of nanoparticles during use of the MD can modify its classification in the eyes of the authorities), (ii) provide data for risk assessment (environmental or health), (iii) validate the performance of filtration or purification systems for liquids or gases (iv) To obtain ultra-pure water for certain technological sectors (e.g. semiconductors), the availability of high-performance, reliable and comparable analytical techniques and methods is key.
The emergence of new thinking on micro/nanoplastic issues also adds to this, with needs in the field of effluent management at water treatment plants or at plant outlets.
Find out more about the state of the art in terms of validation and standardization of the most relevant methods with the webinar organized by NanoMesureFrance on March 22 from 11:00 to 11:45 a.m..
Dr Caterina MINELLI (NPL / UK) will take the floor with her presentation entitled "Methods you can count on: A journey into the standardization of nanoparticle concentration measurements "The purpose of this event is to share the work carried out in recent years by the NPL (UK's national metrology institute) on this subject.
