Extractables & Leachables Round Robin - Still accepting participants
The BP4NTA E&L Technical Subcommittee is advancing a data processing round robin designed to evaluate how laboratories process and interpret the same non-targeted analysis datasets. The study will establish a baseline understanding of current E&L data-processing practices and identify areas of convergence and variability across the industry. Results are expected to help inform future best practices, educational resources, and standards discussions for E&L data interpretation. The subcommittee anticipates completing the study and sharing results in early 2027.
Anyone, including non-E&L-focused researchers, is welcome to join. Those interested in participating or learning more are encouraged to contact Michael Rush at michael_rush@edwards.com
