| Tobacco - Residue Testing |
|
We
analyse all
types of tobacco on behalf of tobacco traders and manufacturers
from around the world.
Due
to the characteristics of the tobacco leaf, this type of analysis
requires specialist knowledge and the development of many individual
methods.
We
have been active in this area since 1995 and have
therefore built up a high level of experience and expertise.
An
ongoing programme of method development to ensures that we remain
capable of screening for all the compounds that the industry
requires.
