SRT-n11: Metrology for monitoring endocrine disrupting compounds under the Water Framework Directive
2018
The Water Framework Directive (WFD) establishes a strategy for the protection and improvement of the aquatic environment and water quality in Europe.
Among chemical pollutants of particular concern are endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) due to their environmental and public health effects. In 2013, a class of EDCs - natural and synthetic estrogens - were introduced in the first WFD watch list of priority substances together with their possible methods of analysis and performance requirements.
However, reliable harmonised methods that meet these requirements are still missing and urgently needed.
The project plan to develop traceable measurement methods for the determination of the targeted EDCs and to ensure their transfer to normative bodies.
