The CITAC Initiative aims to foster collaboration between existing organisations to improve the international comparability of chemical measurements.
CITAC is an international organization, having members from all continents. Since the CITAC Chair and Secretary are elected every three years, their offices are ‘moving’ around the world.
CITAC develops new guidelines in the field of metrology in chemistry in cooperation with international sister organizations such as Eurachem and IUPAC, organizes conferences and workshops in this field.
Dear CITAC Members,
It is with deep sadness that we inform you of the passing of Professor Wolfhard Wegscheider, former Chair of CITAC and a distinguished figure in analytical chemistry and metrology in chemistry.
Professor Wegscheider was a dedicated scientist whose contributions have left an enduring impact on our field. His work in chemical metrology and analytical science was instrumental in advancing the reliability of measurements worldwide. As Chair of CITAC, he provided invaluable leadership, fostering international collaboration and guiding key developments in chemical measurement science.
Beyond his scientific achievements, Professor Wegscheider was a mentor and an inspiration to many. His passion for rigorous methodology and his commitment to the highest standards of measurement science have shaped the work of researchers and institutions globally.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues. His legacy will continue to guide and inspire us.
Sincerely,
Felipe R. Lourenço,
CITAC Secretary

Being created in 1993, CITAC informs communities of analytical chemists and metrologists about its activity every year in the CITAC News issue. Typically CITAC News starts with the Foreword of the Chair, Address of the Vice Chair, Message from the CITAC Secretary and Editorial by the CITAC News Editor. The table of contents contains annual liaison reports of the international sister organizations, most interesting/important papers on metrology in chemistry won the annual CITAC award, messages of the new members, meeting reports and announcements about coming events in the field of metrology in chemistry, updated CITAC members list, etc.
