Africa gets its first accredited commercial dioxin testing laboratory
Original: Africa gets its first commercial accredited dioxin testing laboratory
Africa has opened its first commercially operated, accredited laboratory for testing dioxins, the toxic persistent pollutants released by industrial processes and waste burning. Until now samples had to be shipped abroad for analysis, which was slow and costly. The facility is expected to help regulators, food producers and environmental agencies monitor contamination across the continent.
Why now: The opening of the first accredited dioxin lab in Africa is a significant step for environmental and food safety monitoring on the continent.
