  •   Fera NRL website has moved.  

    Fera is pleased to announce that the National Reference Laboratory (NRL) website content has been incorporated into the main Fera website and can be found at: http://www.fera.defra.gov.uk/scienceResearch/nationalReferenceLaboratory/index.cfm.
     
    Fera is NRL for these functions:
    • Chemical Safety in Food
    o Mycotoxins
    o Heavy Metals in Food
    o Dioxins and PCBs
    o PAHs
    o Materials and Articles in Contact With Food
    • Chemical Contaminants in Animal Feed
    o Dioxins and PCBs
    • Pesticides Residues
    o Cereals and feeding stuff
    o Fruits and vegetables
    o Single residue methods
    • Veterinary Medicines Residues
    o A6 - chloramphenicol, nitrofurans honey, dapsone
    o B1, B2a, and B2b - ionophores
     
    In its new home, the NRL website will benefit from the increased functionality offered by being on the Fera website. We look forward to making use of this for handling incoming and outgoing information.
     
    The move has happened as part of an ongoing programme of improvements to government websites. ‘Transformational Government’ involves rationalisation of the government web presence, allowing users to find different information from the same organisation in one place.
     
    We hope you find the website improved, user friendly and efficient. Please re-set your bookmark to the new website.
