Pesticide Residues & Contaminants Testing
Pesticide residues refer to traces of pesticides that remain on or in food, water, soil, or other environmental surfaces after the application of pesticides. Pesticides are chemicals used to control or eliminate pests, such as insects, weeds, fungi, and rodents, in agricultural, residential, and industrial settings.
Regulatory authorities around the world establish maximum residue limits (MRLs) for pesticides in food and water to ensure consumer safety. MRLs are set based on scientific risk assessments conducted by organizations like the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Food Toxins : are substances that can be naturally present or introduced into food during production, processing, storage, or preparation, and can potentially harm human health when consumed. These toxins can originate from various sources, including plants, animals, bacteria, fungi, and environmental contaminants. Here are some common food toxins:
Fungal Toxins : (Mycotoxins), Aflatoxins, Ochratoxin. Industrial chemicals: PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), dioxins, and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) can contaminate food.
Plant Toxins : Naturally occurring toxins present in certain plants.
