In order to extent our services and to offer these to our costumers, we have developed a specialized bee-keeping department and we can set up various studies in the laboratory, semi-field and field conditions to evaluate the toxic effects of plant protection products (PPPs) to bees (Apis mellifera) and bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) following the official CEB, EPPO methods, OECD Guidelines and EFSA's definitions. This activity is GLP officially recognized.
