Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) is a quality system, which concerns the organizational process and the conditions under which non-clinical laboratory studies for the safety of human health and the environment, are designed, conducted, tested, recorded, archived and presented in a final report. In non-clinical studies, a test item is tested in the laboratory or in the environment to gather information about its properties and / or safety and to submit it to regulatory authorities.

AgriScienceGEO is certified by the Greek authorities (General Chemical State Laboratory) as a GLP compliant Test Facility to conduct field and greenhouse studies for the determination of pesticide residues in food or animal feedstuffs.

The GLP trials are carried out by our experienced scientific team in all regions of Greece and on a wide range of crops such as trees, vines, arable crops (cereals, legumes and industrial plants) and vegetables (field and greenhouse). The studies are performed according to the GLP Standard Operating Procedures of AgriScienceGEO. The test items are applied by seed dressing, soil broadcast or in furrow application during drilling/planting, soil and foliar sprays, dusting, drip/drench Irrigation, etc.

AgriScienceGEO can offer the following GLP studies:
