Chemir Featured in New York Times
The New York Times recently featured the role of Chemir Analytical Services in an investigation of a clothing product claim. The newspaper hired Chemir Analytical Services to test a popular line of clothing supposedly made with seaweed. The analysis showed no traces of seaweed materials. “Seaweeds have known vitamins and minerals, and we searched specifically for those vitamins, and we didn’t see them,” said Carolyn J. Otten, Ph.D., Director of Specialized Services at Chemir.
