Food Pesticide Residues Testing

Farmers use pesticides, such as insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, acaricides, etc., to help crop resist to disease, weeds, and pests. Proper usage of pesticides ensures the yields and quality of crops. However, the overuse or use of forbidden pesticides can result in the accumulation of harmful chemical residues in food products. This would subsequently threaten the health and safety of animals and humans. To avoid the risk of health issues, it is critical to strictly control pesticide exposure under local and international standards, and to minimize the pesticide residues in crops.

Lifeasible is a reliable partner for pesticide residues testing, who provides expert trace residue analysis services. Using liquid (HPLC-MS/MS, triple quadrupole UPLC-MS/MS) and gas (GC-MS/MS) chromatography techniques, together with other modern technologies, we provide fast and accurate detection, identification and quantification of pesticide residues in food products. The pesticides items can be tested include, but not limited to:

• Pesticides:
• Organochlorine pesticides: e.g., hexachlorocyclohexane, dichlorodiphenyl trichloroethane (DDTs), quintozene, dichlorvos, etc..
• Organonitrogen/Carbamates pesticides: e.g., aldicarb, carbaryl, isoprocarb, etc..
• Organophosphorus pesticides: e.g., methamidophos, nialate, isofenphos-methyl, dimethoate, moncrotophos, etc..
• Pyrethroids pesticides: e.g., cypermethrin, permethrin, deltamethrin, ethofenprox, etc..
• Fungicides:
• Dithiocarbamate fungicides.
• Quinone fungicides: e.g. dithianon.
• Herbicides:
• Glyphosate/glufosinate herbicides.
• Neonicotinoids herbicides: e.g., imidacloprid, acetamiprid, thiamethoxam, etc..
• Phenoxy acidic herbicides: e.g., 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, etc..
• Trifluralin herbicides.
• Quaternary ammonium herbicides: e.g. paraquat, diquat, etc..
• Sulfonylurea herbicides: e.g. metsulfuron.
• Plant growth regulators: e.g. maleic hydrazide
• Acaricides: bromopropylate, abamectin, spirodiclofen, fenpyroximate, etc..
• Antimicrobials:
• Natural antimicrobials.
• Organosilicon antimicrobials.
• Fluoroquinolone antimicrobials.
• Rodenticides: e.g., zinc phosphide, alphanaphthylthiourea, warfarin, diphacin, etc..
• Molluscicides: e.g., niclosamide, immersion-molluscicide, 6% tetraethylene aldehyde, etc..
• Nematicides: e.g., aldicrab.
• Others.
