The 21st round of the Interlaboratory Comparison on POPs in Food was conducted in 2020 by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (NIPH).
Summary
The study included the determination of the 2,3,7,8-chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs), as well as dioxin-like non-ortho and mono-ortho chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in three different food items. Additionally, the participating laboratories could determine the concentrations of six indicator PCBs, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and hexabromocyclododecanes (HBCDs) in the same food samples.
