“Despite the extraordinary circumstances we are all facing with COVID-19, Smither was committed to getting the multitude of studies within this program delivered on time. I received a high level of customer service throughout the program, from working through the iterations of the finicky solubility of the substance, to the creative methods for stock solution preparation for the ELS studies, to the revisions and amendments for the final reports. The Smither team handled all of it with true professionalism and understanding of client needs. Their client-focused work will allow us to proceed with submission as planned and on schedule.”

Our Testing Services

Product Chemistry
Comprehensive physical and chemical characterisation of active ingredients and formulated products to support regulatory submissions worldwide.

Metabolism
Metabolism studies to determine the fate and transformation of active substances in plants, animals, and the environment under controlled laboratory conditions.

Environmental Fate
Studies on degradation, mobility, and accumulation of pesticides in soil, water, and sediment systems to assess environmental persistence and behaviour.

Ecotoxicology
Toxicity testing on non-target organisms including aquatic species, birds, bees, earthworms, and soil microorganisms to evaluate ecological risk.

GMO Feeding Studies
Feeding studies to evaluate the safety and nutritional equivalence of genetically modified organisms and their derived products.

Residue Chemistry
Analytical method development and residue studies to determine pesticide residue levels in crops, food, and environmental samples.

Formulation Testing
Physical, chemical, and stability testing of pesticide formulations to ensure product quality, shelf life, and regulatory compliance.
