4. 1st December 20154EMPIR Workshop on Environment call 2016 -  Further standardization of effect-based tools such as in vitro bioassays for regulatory applications and use for surface water monitoring is needed (Kase et al., 2009).  ISO,CEN works are in progress  A common validation framework that can also cover tools that are less established is therefore valuable to increase comparability of such data from different regions.  NORMAN protocol is under negotiation at CEN level (CEN TC 230 Water Analysis) Need of METROLOGICAL INFRASTRUCTURE?
