Leatherhead opened its new Chemistry Research Laboratory.
September 25/Leatherhead, U.K./Press Release -- Leatherhead’s Food Innovation Day, held on September 19, saw the official opening of its new Chemistry Research Laboratory. This new facility has successfully retained its UKAS-accreditation for a wide range of food testing, including Group 1 and Group 2 nutrition, and a range of ELISA-based assays for allergens and meat speciation.
The increased space has allowed Leatherhead to bring all of our chemistry facilities into one laboratory, with a dedicated section for allergens’ testing. The large purpose-built facility has been designed for efficient flow-through of samples from receipt and preparation through to extraction and analysis. This ergonomic advantage will allow the range of analytical services at Leatherhead to continue to grow in capacity and scope, as well as expand our research capabilities.
