The Analytical Scientist / Authors / Peter Kootstra

Peter Kootstra

With Peter Kootstra’s background in medical and analytical chemistry, laboratories can no longer have secrets. After more than 25 years working for the government, Peter is now a consultant on analytical chemistry and quality assurance. He is co-owner of Lab-QAcademy, a provider of training courses and workshops on the quality assurance in laboratories. Peter believes that, by following a practical approach, the quality of laboratories can be improved: “If analyst know why rules are necessary, quality will be improved”.
