The state laboratory for pesticide control at Kapitan Andreevo border checkpoint will start operating by the end of February, Bulgarian Food Safety Agency (BASF) Executive Director Svetlozar Patarinski said for BNR. In his words, the renovation of the building has been completed and the laboratory has been equipped. ''The agency is planning to undergo the assessment by the Executive Agency Bulgarian Accreditation Service by the end of the month’', Svetlozar Patarinski said.
Currently, samples for the official phytosanitary control cannot be tested at Kapitan Andreevo, because following long litigation the state terminated the contract with the private laboratory, which had a monopoly for years. The samples are taken by the food agency inspectors at the border checkpoint and are analysed in the state laboratory in Sofia, which slows down the process.
