DIN EN 16278 specifies a procedure for the determination of inorganic arsenic in animal feeding stuffs of marine origin by Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) and Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (HG-AAS). The method has been successfully tested in a collaborative trial with a working range from 0,19 mg/kg to 2,7 mg/kg (HORRAT values < 2; the HORRAT value is the Horwitz-Ratio value). The Limit of Quantification (LOQ) of the method is usually approximately 0,1 mg/kg or lower. The European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 327 "Animal feeding stuffs - Methods of sampling and analysis", the secretariat of which is held by NEN (Netherlands). The collaboration of DIN for the field of responsibility of CEN/TC 327 is performed through national Mirror Committee, Working Committee NA 057-03-03 AA "Futtermittel" ("Animal feeding stuffs") of NAL.
