Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM)
Manfred Golze studied chemistry at Freie Universität Berlin (FUB), where he also received his doctorate in the field of physical chemistry. After working at FUB and the Max Planck Society’s Fritz Haber Institute, he joined the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) in 1987. From 1991 until his retirement in March 2015, he was a head of section and responsible for Quality Management at BAM. He is an active member of the EUROLAB-Deutschland association of testing laboratories, where he was secretary director from 1991 to 2013. From 1999 to 2005, he was also secretary general of the European Federation EUROLAB aisbl and a long-serving chairman of the EUROLAB Technical Committee for Quality Assurance (TCQA).
Several key international standards for laboratories are currently being revised, of which DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025 [1] is probably the most important. This will involve a number of changes (…)
Green chemistry: BAM investigates pharmaceutical production without solvents and CO₂ emissions
The Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) is developing a more sustainable process to produce active pharmaceutical ingredients in a major EU project: The pilot project is intended to demonstrate the advantages of mechanochemistry for more environmentally friendly and CO2-n ... more
A novel path for sustainable photon upconversion with non-precious metals
Sustainable chemical applications need to be able to employ renewable energy sources, renewable raw materials, and earth-abundant elements. However, to date many techniques have only been possible with the use of expensive precious metals or rare earth metals, the extraction of which can ha ... more
How good is the measurement method?
The causes of accidents can be diverse, whether it is an explosion in a chemical plant or a fire on a dangerous goods freighter. Prevention starts in the laboratory where chemicals are tested for their hazardous properties. Safety experts, haulage contractors or traders must be able to rely ... more
On the way to the cyber-physical lab
Laboratories tend to be central hubs for chemical, biotechnological, pharmaceutical or foodstuff production. They play a key role in research and development, chemical analysis, quality assurance, maintenance and process control. more
The internet of things in the lab and in process
It is a fact that much of the time spent on analytical laboratory instrumentation these days goes into system maintenance. Digital transformation could give us more time again for creativity and our actual laboratory work – if we shape it the right way. more
In today’s laboratories, elemental analysis methods are used for more than just determining total metal content in various sample matrices. They have become an important tool for life science research in environmental science, medicine and biology. more
