Impact/Purpose:
Presentation given to the Science Advisory Panel for Constituents of Emerging Concern (CECs) in California’s Aquatic Ecosystems virtual meeting October 2020
Description:
Non-targeted analysis (NTA) strives to detect and identify a wide range of chemicals without preconceived target list or standards. While fields like metabolomics have developed mature methodologies and quality control practices, NTA for environmental studies is still experiencing a steep learning curve and growing pains. The use of NTA data requires that practitioners use sound, defensible, and commonly accepted techniques for data collection, analysis, and reporting. Here, the Benchmarking and Publications for Non-Targeted Analysis (BP4NTA) workgroup provides information on best reporting practices for transparency and reproducibility. for NTA studies. The state of the science and reasons for using NTA techniques are discussed.
