Ecotoxicology
CEMAS carries out a range of GLP-compliant terrestrial, aquatic, and non-target plant studies to evaluate ecotoxicological effects in support of the registration of substances. The Ecotoxicology Unit has recently modernised laboratories and studies are carried out with stringent environmental control where temperature, humidity and photoperiod can be regulated in our suite of rooms.
CEMAS has a fully equipped analytical facility to provide support to studies including method development, method validation and sample analysis.
