What the notification says

Latest notice (⁨G/TBT/N/UGA/1966/Add.1⁩, 15 December 2025)

The latest notice says the measure was adopted or published.

DUS 2403:2024, Standard test method for analysis of engine coolant for chloride and other anions by ion chromatography, Second Edition

The aim of this addendum is to inform WTO Members that the Draft Uganda Standard; DUS 2403:2024, Standard test method for analysis of engine coolant for chloride and other anions by ion chromatography, Second Edition; notified in G/TBT/N/UGA/1966 was adopted on 30 September 2025. The adopted Uganda Standard, US 2403: 2025 Standard test method for analysis of engine coolant for chloride and other anions by ion chromatography (Second edition), can be purchased online through the link:

This Draft Uganda Standard covers the chemical analysis of engine coolant for chloride ion by high-performance ion chromatography (HPIC). Several other common anions found in engine coolant can be determined in one chromatographic analysis by this test method. This test method is applicable to both new and used engine coolant. Coelution of other ions may cause interferences for any of the listed anions. In the case of unfamiliar formulations, identification verification should be performed by either or both fortification and dilution of the sample matrix with the anions of interest. Analysis can be performed directly by this test method without pretreatment, other than dilution, as required by the linear ranges of the equipment.
