Regulations and restrictions on the use of chemicals to tackle plant and animal pests and diseases are becoming increasingly stringent, which means the range of chemical options available for tackling these threats is constantly being eroded. It’s essential to ensure that any chemicals used in the environment do not pose a threat to plants, wildlife and ecosystems, while ensuring they are effective against target pests and diseases.
Fera works to the latest OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals, which are a collection of the most relevant internationally agreed testing methods used by government, industry and independent laboratories to identify and characterise potential hazards of chemicals. We use innovative tools and techniques in our regulatory safety testing, providing valuable support to companies in their chemical evaluation and registration efforts.
