OECD-505 Agrochemical Feeding Studies

Agrochemical products undergo rigorous testing to ensure they do not pose harmful risks to human safety through indirect routes. One critical aspect of this testing is the OECD-505 agrochemical feeding study, which evaluates the risk to consumers from exposure to agrochemical residues present in livestock feed. This study is essential for determining how chemicals that may be present in livestock feed transfer into food products such as milk, meat, and eggs.

CEMAS has supported our clients in the agrochemical industry with GLP residue feeding studies to OECD-505 standards for more than 30 years. Working with state-of-the-art in-life facilities, we offer full GLP compliance for livestock studies, which can be tailored to your exact regulatory need. We offer full flexibility, for example individual housing and intake measurements. Our laboratory team have decades of experience of analysis and method development in difficult matrices, providing full analytical support and ensuring that your feeding studies meet regulatory requirements to support product registration.
