Keeping Tabs on Dioxins

| Jean-François Focant

Exposure to dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) remains a significant threat to a substantial proportion of the European population. To maintain high levels of vigilance, analytical strategies need to evolve. Here, I propose substantial changes to the EU’s monitoring strategy, changes that channel the power of modern analytical technology to accurately, rapidly and inexpensively monitor food and feed for dioxins, PCBs and as-yet-unidentified toxicants.
