Phytocontrol passes its QS test once again
Over 18 years, Phytocontrol has built a solid reputation as a European leader in contaminant analysis. This latest success in the German QS test confirms the laboratory’s high level of expertise.
This also demonstrates Phytocontrol’s ongoing commitment to analytical quality, in line with the standards of the German Quality standard, which covers all players in the food production and distribution chain.
QS is one of the most important inspection systems for foodstuffs. It provides comprehensive certification covering every stage of the supply chain, including farming, processing, packaging and marketing.
This inter-laboratory test was carried out on table grapes for pesticide analysis. It involves detecting and quantifying several active substances “blind” within 48 hours. Our participation in the QS standard guarantees you a high level of quality, as the pass criteria are among the strictest:
- All molecules must be identified
- No false positives are tolerated
- Quantifications must be between 70 and 120% of the spiking level
Since 2014, Phytocontrol has held QS standard certification, providing overall quality assurance for the laboratory’s services, based on approved and verifiable production standards.
