EURL guidelines

In this area there are documents relating to the activity of the NRL-MN on metals and other chemical elements, produced by the EURLs of the contaminant area.

The Guideline drawn up in 2016 by the four EURLs of the contaminant area (PAHs, Metals, Mycotoxins, PCBs and dioxins) provides useful indications, shared across the networks, for the determination of the limits of quantification (LOQ) and detection (LOD) and replaces the requirements previously indicated in Reg. (EC) 333/2007.
