Ecotoxicology Studies
Our scientists are knowledgeable in testing challenging materials and analytically confirming exposure levels in low parts per trillion (ppt) range in a variety of sediment, soil, diets and aquatic matrices.
Ecotoxicology tests offered:
* Smithers has experience of performing these tests across a range of product types including plant protection products, biocidal products, veterinary medicines, pharmaceuticals and industrial chemicals.
KEY:
OSPAR = Commission, Methods for the Testing of Chemicals used in the Offshore Oil Industry
IOBC = International Organisation for Biological and Integrated Control
EPPO = European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organisation.
