Terrestrial Ecotoxicology
One of the major regulatory developments and changes in the past years certainly happened in the terrestrial ecotoxicology. Additional and new testing requirements (e.g., for soil organisms, honeybees), higher tier studies (e.g., non-target arthropods, honeybees) and complex risk assessment procedures (e.g., bird and mammal, soil organisms) are now standard requirements for dossier submission for agro- and biotech products.
IES Ltd is specialised in conducting higher tier terrestrial studies.
The portfolio of studies includes:
- Honeybee: larval test, semi-field tunnel and field studies
- Non-Target Arthropods: insect residue studies, aged residues studies, semi-field single species studies, multi species in- and off-crop field trials
- Non-Target Plant: greenhouse and field studies
