Charles River can support the eFate needs of your animal health product development program in our modern, open-plan, flexible laboratories using soils, sediments and natural waters sourced from sites worldwide. The viability (biomass) of each test system is verified (if applicable) prior to study initiation.
Studies include:
-
Aerobic and anaerobic degradation in soil and aquatic sediment systems
-
Mineralization in surface water
-
Soil adsorption-desorption/mobility
-
Hydrolytic stability trials at a range of pH values and temperatures
-
Photolytic stability in buffered solution and on soil surfaces
-
Sludge adsorption/desorption
-
Radiolabeled or non-radiolabeled
-
Degradation of animal health products in manure
