21GRD07 PlasticTrace Metrological traceability of measurement data from nano- to small microplastics for a greener environment and food safety

AI summary Read the abstract

The PlasticTrace project (EU metrology initiative 21GRD07) is working to establish metrological traceability — standardized, reliable measurement chains — for nano- to small microplastics in food and environmental samples. Without agreed measurement standards, data from different labs cannot be meaningfully compared, so this work is foundational for regulatory decision-making on microplastic safety.
