Non-target screnning - a new approach to identify Arctic pollutants

Updated 2018-08-26

The objective of the project is to identify compounds in Arctic environmental and human samples, which have not previously been studied in the Arctic. By using both high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or gas chromatography (GC) HPLC and GC techniques, a broad spectrum of compounds of different polarity will be covered, including metabolites

This is not a National Implementation Plan (NIP) project
