Carsten Engelhard and colleagues from the University of Münster, Germany, have been testing the analytical performance of three different sample introduction systems in regards to the characterization of silver nanoparticles. There is a growing amount of environmental concern about the risks of engineered nanomaterials. In order to provide accurate risk assessments and advise on policies, it is important to be able to accurately characterize nanomaterials in a quick and sensitive way. Click through and take a look at their research in this area, now published with JAAS.
