Metrological traceability of measurement data from nano- to smallmicroplastics for a greener environment and food safety

根据欧盟循环经济行动计划（CEAP）的要求，PlasticTrace旨在解决开发和统一饮用水、食品和环境基质中释放的小微/纳米塑料（SMPs/NPs）的化学鉴定、物理表征和定量方法的迫切需求。在这种情况下，将开发、优化、比较和协调连字符和互补的分析方法，从而通过稳健的验证研究建立测量的计量可追溯性。将在该项目内编制新颖和与环境有关的SMP/NP参考材料。与全球主要利益相关者的国际合作将被视为欧洲计量网络的基础。

PlasticTrace aims to address the urgent need for development and harmonisation of methods for the chemical identification, physical characterisation and quantification of released small micro/nanoplastics (SMPs/NPs) in drinking water, food and environmental matrices, as required by the EU’s Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP). In this context, hyphenated and complementary analytical approaches will be developed, optimised, compared and harmonised, leading to the establishment of metrological traceability of measurements through robust validation studies. Novel and environmentally relevant SMP/NP reference materials will be developed within the project. International cooperation with key stakeholders globally will be considered as the basis for a European Metrology network.
