Residue Analysis Services (RAS)
The analysis of PPP residues in fruit and vegetable crops is vitally important for protecting animal and human health. Through knowledge of the identity, character and potential toxicity of parent compounds, degradation products or metabolites, regulators can set MRLs and guidance to minimize operator exposure.
- Residue analysis of a large number and diverse range of compounds annually, with a reliable and efficient 24/7 analyte quantitation that enables a high throughput of >20,000 samples per year
- Vast expertise in method development, GLP method validation and analyte quantitation to fulfil current and new regulatory requirements
- Comprehensive facilities and high-specification equipment deliver robust and reliable data
Your Needs
Identifying and characterizing residues in line with regulatory requirements and timelines
对于许多不同的监管评估，对于在作物中的残留量来评估与产品的运营商的风险来说，PPPS需要残留分析。这导致需要在各种研究中以符合，及时，具有成本效益和强大的方式产生高质量数据。在没有正确的洞察力和知识的情况下，驾驶如何有效地和战略方式进行具有挑战性。残留分析研究通常在PPP的监管之旅结束时进行，所以通过这些紧张的时间表，您需要快速的可靠数据。

分析方法现代化和创新lored to your specific need
As well as standard techniques used for non-complex PPPs, our team routinely develop new analytical methods for active components and metabolites. This means leveraging insights from our extensive analytical experience, modifying existing analytical methods and utilizing the latest analytical techniques. Examples of innovation include:
- Development of new extraction procedures
- Small-scale extraction methods for substances with limited matrix availability e.g. pollen
- ‘Scaling down’ equipment and reagents to enhance cost-effectiveness
- Utilization of QuEChERS methods and other current techniques
Obviously, method validation is essential. Covance has the facility to perform independent laboratory validation for new methods from other laboratories and across our testing sites.
