Location

SynTech Research in Brazil, established in 2009, stands as a beacon of excellence in agricultural and laboratory practices, adhering to the highest standards. We boast experimental stations strategically located in Piracicaba (SP), Palmeiras de Goiás (GO), and Bandeirantes (PR), complemented by accredited satellite stations with designated areas equipped with essential facilities such as office spaces. Additionally, our proficient team operates in Primavera do Leste (MT), Santa Maria (RS), and Uberlândia (MG), with the flexibility to mobilize to other regions as needed. Our central laboratory and core team handling administrative and quality assurance functions are based in Piracicaba (SP).

Services

Efficacy Studies (GEP):

  • Conducting efficacy studies for regulatory purposes and R&D proposals, spanning agrochemicals, BioSolutions, and fertilizers (Entomology, Nematology, Phytopathology, Herbicides, Biological Products, Desiccants, Adjuvants, Seed Treatment, Bio-stimulants, Inoculants, Fertilizers, Soil Correctives, Growth Regulators, and Post-harvest Testing)
  • We provide end-to-end support for research project development, from exploratory studies to official reports for registration purposes. Additionally, we offer assistance in protocol development and project management to expedite your development and registration processes.

Field Residue Studies (GLP):

  • Our comprehensive program includes protocol development, field testing, sample analysis, and report preparation.
  • Accredited with GLP (Good Laboratory Practices) certification by INMETRO since 2010, we boast a proficient team distributed across the country’s main agricultural regions. Our modern analytical laboratory in São Paulo ensures precise analysis.
  • We conduct residue studies on regular crop matrices (grains, fruits, etc.), Regulated Materials (GMOs), Bee Matrices (Pollen, Nectar, bees, etc.), Soil Residues, Frozen Stability Studies, Processing Studies (Sugar Cane, Citrus, Corn, Soybean, Grape, and Coffee), and Import Tolerance Studies in accordance with EPA and OECD standards. Additionally, we offer BPL audit services for studies and facilities.

Ecotoxicology Studies (GLP):

  • Accredited with GLP certification for studies on the impact of agrochemicals on pollinator organisms, aligning with Instruction Normative No. 2 of February 9, 2017, from IBAMA.
  • We possess the capability to conduct Soil, Pollen, and Nectar Studies
  • Moreover, our team conducts studies to support Environmental Risk Assessment (ERA) for pollinating insects, including:
    • Toxicity to bees from foliage residues (OPPTS 850.3030 – phase 1)
    • Residue studies in matrices relevant to bees (pollen and nectar – phase 2)
    • Semi-field studies (“Tunnel Test”) to refine effects of situations where risk cannot be ruled out in previous phases (EPPO 17010, EFSA Guidance (2013), and US-EPA (2014) – phase 3)
    • Larval development and behavioral studies in bees under tunnel or open-field conditions (OECD 75, EPPO 170).

Studies with Seeds and Traits (GMOs):

  • Possessing CQB (Certificate of Biosafety Quality) by CTNBio (National Technical Biosafety Commission) since 2019, we conduct studies with regulated material, including:
    • Agronomic Equivalence
    • Protein Expression/Composition
    • Non-target Organisms and Ecological Interactions
    • Efficacy Trials (BT, HT).
  • Our expertise extends to Soybean, Corn, Cotton, and Sugar Cane crops.

Regulatory Services:

  • Our key services include consultancy support for:
    • Understanding and interpreting local legislation
    • Choosing effective regulatory strategies and paths
    • Staying updated on new demands and regulatory landscapes
    • Monitoring approvals and deadlines
  • We manage Registration Project overseeing dossier analysis, identification of data gaps, dossier preparation, contracting and/or monitoring of local studies, technical support throughout the registration process, and execution and support at each stage of the process: from RET to Federal Registration/State Registration.
