Metrology in
Chemistry in the framework of the Metre Convention
Since 1993 the field of chemical analysis is included in the
international metrological infrastructure under the roof of the Metre
Convention through the new Consultative Committee for Amount of
Substance (Comité Consultatif pour la Quantité de Matière, CCQM). CCQM's main tasks are to develop, test and apply primary methods of measurement in chemical analysis and to coordinate carefully selected key comparison measurements among national metrology institutes and national chemical institutes which aim at establishing international equivalence of national measurement standards for chemical analysis. Priority areas for key comparisons are:
- Health and safety
- Food
- Environment
- Advanced materials
- Commodities
- Forensics
