Residue monitoring and human safety residue testing
Residue monitoring & human safety residue testing for the Agrochemicals Industry
Ensuring the safety of agrochemical products for both consumers and the environment is essential in today’s highly regulated market. With over 35 years of experience of managing agrochemical residue studies CEMAS offers comprehensive residue monitoring testing services to help companies in the agrochemicals industry meet regulatory requirements, protect consumers, and ensure environmental sustainability.
Residue Testing. Why do it?
Before a product can be used a significant amount of safety testing is required. Residue monitoring is a key aspect of safety testing and involves the detection and quantification of chemical residues left behind in crops, soil, and water following the application of plant protection products. These residues can pose potential risks to human health if not adequately controlled, as well as impact the environment. Residue testing is therefore considered an essential component of the safety testing of agrochemical products to protect consumer health, the environment, meet regulatory standards, and maintain the integrity of our food supply.
