Not sure which pesticide screen is right for you?

Choosing the right screen to properly test your product can be a little complicated! Below you will find an easy to use table to help you understand the types of tests we offer and determine which screen will work best for you.

Individual Screen

Level 1

The individual screen measures one compound in your product.
If you need to know the concentration of a single pesticide, then this is the test for you.

Approx. # of A.I.s 1-5

Legacy Screens

Level 2

A screen on a single instrument, such as polar screens. Each instrument tests between 150-250 different compounds, some of which must be tested separately from larger screens

If you have to test for glyphosate, sodium bromide, or phosphoric acid, you will need to use this screen.

Approx. # of A.I.s 150-250

Commodity Specific Screens

Level 3

This screen targets the specific compounds most likely to be found in your commodity.

Created by in house experts, the commodity specific screen incorporates global MRLs, the most heavily used pesticides on the product, and high-interest pesticides to develop one test that caters to your product.

Approx. # of A.I.s 150-200

Omni Screen

Level 4

Our most comprehensive screen, containing as many compounds as we can fit into a single analysis.

If you are unsure about which screen to choose or have unclear demands from your customers in other countries, this screen tests for more compounds than any other test we offer.

Approx. # of A.I.s 400-500
