Test Description

Mandarins are grown across a range of locations around the globe, each with its own farming challenges, from which to ensure only high quality produce is created and offered to demanding consumers. This can give rise to large scale usage of a range of pesticides, leading to large-scale residue challenges for your testing laboratories to deal with.

This blank material is from the same source as the positive material. As such it provides the perfect match for your analysis, giving the same matrix responses as seen in the positive material.

Pesticides are used extensively across the globe. They have effective yield improving qualities, but must be used properly to reduce any residues passed on to animals or consumers. This can often be the case due to their extensive benefits and therefore the short term gains that can be made.

Most countries now have an extensive monitoring scheme for pesticide residues written into their legislation. There are more than 1000 compounds used worldwide as pesticides or plant protection products. When used properly, according to good agricultural practice, any residues can be expected to be below maximum residue limits. The Fapas pesticide residues quality control materials are based on the EU monitoring list and associated MRLs but are widely applicable to most geographic areas.

Dithiocarbamates are a range of fungicides, their wide ranging advantages and relatively low effects on environment has resulted in their widespread use. It is therefore important to ensure that good pesticide usage practises are being used, from which to ensure only safe foodstuffs are being offered to consumers.
