Standard and non-standard laboratory tests
We offer extensive experience in the development and performance of acute and chronic laboratory tests under GLP with
- Standard test organisms
- non-standard test organisms
- modified test designs
Our standard and non-standard test organisms:
Insects:
- Mayflies (Ephemeroptera; e.g. Cloeon dipterum)
- Caddisflies (Trichoptera; e.g. Hydropsyche incognita, Lasiocephala basalis, Rhyacophila spp.)
- Phantom midges (Chaoboridae; e.g. Chaoborus obscuripes, Chaoborus crystallinus)
- Non-biting midges (Chironomidae)
- Water bugs (e.g. Notonecta glauca)
Crustacea:
- Isopods (e.g. Asellus aquaticus)
- Amphipods (e.g. Gammarus pulex, Gammarus roeseli, Gammarus fossarum, Crangonyx pseudogracilis, Hyalella azteca)
- Phyllopods (e.g. Daphnia longispina, Daphnia pulex, Simocephalus sp., Chydorus sp.)
- Copepods (different species depending on season)
- Decapods (e.g. Neocaridina sp.)
Rotifera:
- depending on season, e.g.
- Brachionus spp.
- Keratella quadrata
- Lecane spp.
Mollusca:
- Gastropoda (e.g. Potamopyrgus antipodarum, Lymnea stagnalis)
Oligochaeta:
