Ms. Clarissa G. Manguin of the Metrology in Chemistry Section of the DOST-ITDI National Metrology Division presented the poster “Establishing Metrological Traceability in Elemental Analysis: Development of a Candidate Reference Material for Cd, Hg and Pb in Mussels” during the poster session of the IMEKO TC8-TC11-TC24 Joint Conference 2026.

The study was co-authored by Mr. Janesky O. Esplana, Mr. Ian Deniell S. Magsino, Mr. Aaron C. Dacuya and Ms. Alleni T. Junsay.

🦪 Mussels are widely consumed and can accumulate toxic elements from their environment. Reliable measurement of cadmium, mercury and lead is therefore essential to seafood safety, public health monitoring and confidence in laboratory results.

A locally developed mussel reference material provides Philippine laboratories with a relevant tool for method validation, quality control and proficiency testing. It supports metrological traceability, improves the comparability of results among laboratories and can lessen dependence on costly imported reference materials.

🔬 The work also strengthens the ability of food safety laboratories to produce dependable data for regulators, seafood producers and consumers. Through this study, NMD advances the development of accessible Philippine reference materials that respond directly to the country’s food safety and measurement needs.
