On September 28-29, the first hybrid meeting of the COST Action WATSON ‘WATer isotopeS in the critical zONe’ will take place in Ljubljana.

August 6, 2021 marks the first anniversary of death of our dear friend Dr. Hirokatsu Akagi well known for  his outstanding contributions in scientific research, mentoring,  public outreach, and impact on mercury policy and management.

Multiparameter analyses of tap water can provide insight on the role of multiple distinct inputs and relationship between infrastructure and the environment over a range of scales.

He is professor, head of laboratory as well as director of the institute at Derzhavin Tambov State University, Tambov, Russia and he is also working at the National University of Science and Technology in Moscow. He is interested in nanotoxicology, plant nanobiotechnology, antibacterial nanomaterials, carbon nanomaterials and bioaccumulation of nanoparticles.

The news related to the research on authenticity and traceability of food taking truffles as an example was published on IAEA news website.

The book summarizes recent progress in analytical methodologies for detection, characterization and quantification of metal-based NMs, and their applications to a variety of complex samples.

Check out an IJS video that nicely reminds us of why we do what we do and why our work is so important and fascinating.

Boosting metrology in food and nutrition benefits Society as a whole and the economy, providing reliable measurements for trade, health, safety, environmental protection, sustainability of agrifood systems and law enforcement, and providing evidence of this reliability.

We announce the start of the application period for 15 Early Stage Researcher (ESR) positions offered by the 9 host organisations participating in the MSCA ITN scheme entitled “ Advanced research and Training Network in Food quality, safety and security” (FoodTraNet).

As part of the CitieS-Health project, the students of the Spodnja Šiška primary school presented a research paper entitled Sound environment - how we perceive it and how it affects us.

2020 was a special year in all aspects, but that did not stop our researchers from being outstanding in their work. In front of you is a brochure that captures the most remarkable achievements of our Department.

Great news from the International Atomic Energy Agency: our department achieved excellent results and was among the best participating laboratories at the latest International Water Isotope Inter-Comparison Test (WICO) for the analysis of stable isotope composition of oxygen and hydrogen (δ¹⁸O and δ²H) in different environmental water samples with isotope-ratio mass spectrometry.
