Interlaboratory trial to determine the analytical state-of-the-art of bromate determination in drinking water.
2000
The new European Directive for water intended for human consumption
has established a regulatory level for bromate at 10 µg L−1.
This Maximum Admissible Concentration requires analytical methods with detection
limits of a least 2.5 µg L−1. A project
funded by the Standards, Measurements and Testing Programme of the European
Commission has enabled the improvement and/or development of methods for the
determination of bromate at such concentration levels. This collaborative
work was concluded by the organisation of an interlaboratory trial involving
26 European laboratories, which enabled the testing of both a draft ISO Standard
method and alternative methods. This paper presents the results of this interlaboratory
trial, along with results of a bromate stability study. The progress made
with respect to the analytical state-of-the-art for bromate will
greatly benefit the quality of measurements carried out in water quality monitoring
