Environmental fate residue assessment and ecotoxicology support
Environmental fate residue assessment and ecotoxicology support for the Agrochemicals Industry
Understanding the environmental fate of plant protection products (PPPs) and their potential impact on ecosystems is key for regulatory compliance and sustainable agricultural practices. CEMAS offers comprehensive environmental fate residue assessment and can provide ecotoxicology support to help agrochemical companies evaluate the behaviour of their products in the environment and assess potential risks to non-target organisms. With over 35 years’ experience of managing agrochemical residue studies, CEMAS is the ideal partner for your agrochemical testing services. We partner with various suppliers to enhance our residue analytics support, and our solutions align with global regulatory standards with our laboratories being fully accredited to work in compliance with GxP.
Importance of Environmental Fate Assessment of Residues
Plant protection product residue testing is an essential component of the safety monitoring for protecting consumer health, protecting the environment and meeting regulatory standards. Environmental fate of chemicals and degradation products after application in the environment is important to understand as this will help predict the persistence, mobility, and degradation of chemical residues over time and can help companies can make informed decisions regarding product formulations, application practices, and safety measures. CEMAS offers a range of studies analysing soil, water and air to help build the complete picture.
