PROTEIOS is one of the first independent labs offering officially recognized dust-off abrasion tests

.

Zwaagdijk, The Netherlands
March 14, 2009

Starting today, PROTEIOS International BV is offering the Heubach test to determine free floating dust particles from film coated seeds.

This spring several EU countries, require certain dust-off criteria for seeds treated with certain plant protection products and used within their borders. This means that the seeds have to be coated with very effective and high quality film coat formulations, such as the film coat liquids from INCOTEC. In a number of countries seed lot batches of corn have to be tested after treatment using the Heubach abrasion method or, as in France, according to the Ceres method.

The Heubach test is a critical analytical test and is extremely reliable. In order to obtain representative and reliable test results constant lab conditions are required. At Proteios’s high quality lab these conditions are available.

For more information regarding the test we ask you to visit the website of Proteios at www.proteios.nl
