Pesticides residues
Residue analysis for healthy vegetables and fruits
All companies involved in the fruits and vegetables chain have to be able to guarantee food safety. Laboratorium Zeeuws-Vlaanderen analyses fruits and vegetables for the presence of residues of pesticides. The analysis shows if your sample complies to the European mrl’s or the demands of for example the German supermarkets.
Laboratorium Zeeuws-Vlaanderen has over ten years of experience in analyzing vegetables and fruits on residues. We analyze over 30.000 samples a year, making is the biggest residue laboratory in the Netherlands. Reason for residue analysis can be to determine if the products comply to the conditions of certification or the specific maximum residue levels (mrl). If an exceeding of the mrl is suspected we also can help you.
