Ecotoxicology
Springborn's North American and Swiss environmental testing laboratories offer a variety of ecotoxicology programs in the areas of aquatic (freshwater and marine) and terrestrial species. Specific areas of expertise include beneficial insect studies, aquatic plant growth, plant vegetative vigor, seedling emergence and germination, fish and invertebrate acute studies, early life-stage and life-cycle exposures, as well as customized studies to meet your regulatory testing needs.

Our scientists are knowledgeable in testing problematic (e.g., hydrolytic, volatile, low solubility) materials and analytically confirming exposure levels in low parts per trillion (ppt) range in a variety of sediment, soil and aquatic matrices. Springborn has demonstrated experience with over 150 species and a well-deserved reputation for its work with bees, earthworms, arthropods, invertebrates and a variety of fish species. Some stocks of test organisms have been continuously maintained for up to thirty years.
