SynTech Research Portugal recently passed inspection by the Instituto Português da Qualidade (IPQ). This renewed GLP certificate covers field residues and operator exposure studies – and now also includes Dislodgeable Foliar Residues (DFRs). SynTech Research Portugal is the first company to be able to provide DFR trials in the country.

And following a recent UK MHRA inspection, SynTech UK successfully retained its GLP compliance accreditation. This was also the first inspection since acquisition of the new UK facility, at Pakenham, Suffolk .

Certificates have now been received for all  these accreditations.
