Analytical testing center of AzNIIRKH celebrates its 25th Anniversary!
This article describes the history of the creation and development of the Analytical Testing Center, created on the basis of the Azov Sea Research Fisheries Institute. The founder and first Head of the Analytical Testing Center was Anatoliy Dmitrievich Semenov, Doctor of Chemistry, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. For 25 years of the Center's operation, the Center has been providing extensive technical and methodological support for assessing the quality of the habitat of aquatic biological resources. Since the end of the last century, the Analytical Testing Center has developed, improved and certified more than 100 methods of quantitative chemical analysis for detection of the following chemical elements and compounds in the main components of aquatic ecosystems (water, sediments and hydrobionts): heavy metals and arsenic, chlorine and phosphorus-containing pesticides, chlorophenols, and the major petroleum components—hydrocarbons and resinous substances, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, paraffinic hydrocarbons, congeners of polychlorobiphenyls, including dioxin-like polychlorobiphenyls, phenols, anionic and non-ionic synthetic surfactants. The Center's work to date has been reflected in the published practical guide to the chemical analysis of water, sediments and hydrobionts for the content of priority toxicants. The scope of accreditation of the Analytical Center covers monitoring of the state of aquatic environment, bottom sediments and hydrobionts of the water bodies of the Azov and Black Sea Basin in order to assess the anthropogenic impact on the habitat of aquatic biological resources, including assessments performed upon the request of third-party organizations.
