Test Description

To ensure a high quality crop suppliers regularly use pesticides to reduce disease and pests within their crop. Through good farming practises the levels of pesticides passed to the consumer is low and manageable below safe levels. Suppliers may not always be utilising good farming practise, so it is important to ensure high quality testing to identify any high levels of various pesticides being passed to consumers.

Glyphosate is of key interest to the market at the moment as the regulators decide how to proceed with the use of the herbicide and whether it should be banned. The residue definition to include its principal degradation products and metabolites, especially AMPA, means that methods are now being extended to include these related compounds. Testing proficiency is therefore needed to take advantage of this potential regulation change, where a large section of the global food supply chain would be affected.

This extensive monitoring is continuous for pesticide residues. With over 1000 compounds used worldwide in a plant protection or pesticide capacity, there is a large demand for robust testing capability, something which must be safeguarded to achieve laboratory and therefore financial success.

When used properly, according to good agricultural practice, any residues can be expected to be below maximum residue limits. Fapas pesticide residues quality control materials are based on the EU monitoring list and associated MRLs but are widely applicable to most geographic areas. We also base our statistical data analysis in keeping with quality assurance guidelines as laid out in EC SANTE/12682/2019.
