Terrestrial Ecotoxicology

化学试验

Assessing the impact of a chemical on a terrestrial environment is complex. This is partly due to the diversity of terrestrial organisms – plants, invertebrates and vertebrates – living in and on the soil. Terrestrial ecotoxicology can therefore be challenging as you need to understand the wider connectivity in the ecosystem to be able to put the effect of any single chemical into context. Covance can advise you on study design and perform the studies you need to fulfil your terrestrial ecotoxicology endpoints.

您的需求

全球监管机构需要一系列陆生生态毒理学终点

Global regulators require terrestrial ecotoxicology endpoints to demonstrate the potential hazard posed by your chemical to plants, soil-based microorganisms and invertebrates (for example earthworms). That means you need to create a dossier of robust evidence, conducted to international standards, suitable for submission to regulators.


Our Capabilities

我们的专家团队是提供高质量数据的理想合作伙伴

At Covance, we leverage expertise from our wider group to build a dedicated team focused on delivering the right solution for you. That gives you access to study directors, ecotoxicology experts, and analytical chemists who work collaboratively to design and execute the studies you need. Studies are conducted to recognized international standards and aligned to your specific regulatory requirements.

综合设施旨在满足不断发展的科学和监管需求。

设施包括多个恒定的环境设施,致力于特定的Flora和动物群:

  • Arthropods and Bees
  • Earthworms
  • 植物
  • 生物单能同
  • 蜜蜂幼虫
  • Outdoor covered enclosure
  • 温室

In spring 2020, a full research apiary at the Huntingdon Site was established to expand capacity for honeybee research.
