Established Products and New Limits in Agrochemicals and Biocides
Renolab addresses these challenges with state-of-the-art ICP-MS technology, offering precise, reliable, and rapid analyses, reducing processing times and eliminating the need for outsourcing.
(PresseBox) - The global focus on green agrochemistry and the health of consumers and operators continues to grow, driving significant changes in the regulation of agrochemicals.
Agrochemicals are increasingly subject to recertification as new regulations are introduced annually. Even long-established products must now provide updated impurity data, often with stricter limits than before.
A notable example includes fertilizers (Regulation EU 2019/1009) as well as copper and sulfur formulations (Regulation EU 1107/2009), which are widely used in both conventional and organic agriculture. Unlike before, current regulations require metal impurity analyses for both technical and formulated products. These analyses demand detection limits below parts per billion (ppb) and must contend with highly complex matrices. Additionally, even already registered products must comply with the latest requirements by submitting new data.
Similarly, biocide formulations, such as those containing hydrogen peroxide, are now subject to stricter metal content limits under the Biocide Regulation EU 528/2012.
These increasingly stringent limits pose challenges for traditional instrumentation like Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and Optical ICP, which are no longer adequate for such precise analyses. This shift often forces laboratories to outsource testing to third-party providers, resulting in longer turnaround times and higher costs.
Renolab addresses these challenges with its state-of-the-art ICP-MS technology. This advanced instrumentation ensures reliable, accurate, and rapid analysis, even for metals in complex matrices. By utilizing ICP-MS, Renolab can perform these analyses in days rather than weeks, eliminating the need for external outsourcing.
In addition to metal content analysis, Renolab offers a comprehensive suite of services for the characterization and registration of agrochemicals and biocides, providing a complete solution to meet evolving regulatory demands.
