UNEP/WHO project on mercury human biomonitoring Irina Zastenskaya, Dorota Jarosinska WHO European Centre for Environment and Health 7 June, 2017 Geneva, Switzerland

Update on the project implementation Planned (according to the contract) Performance Three sample matrices selected At least three detailed SOPs for mercury HBM More than four countries in at least 4 UNEP regions for a pilot survey 250 individuals, at least two matrices National survey protocols Update WHO Report incorporating results from national surveys - Scientific report on biological matrices: scalp hair, cord blood and urine - Four SOPs (+ quality control) - 7 countries were selected: implemented in 5 countries; reported by 3 countries (+ Croatia will be included in the WHO report) - 250x3 matrices; 100 samples in Kyrgyzstan; two matrices in the RF - 3 countries; WHO template survey protocol - To the end of 2017 (Art 118 and 119 of REACH Regulation also address access to data)
