Shellfish Sanitation Laboratory Testing Services
Page Content
Since 1985, 吃瓜头条 鈥� Gulf Coast Research Laboratory (GCRL) has played a vital role through water quality testing to maintain public safety in purchasing and consuming shellfish products from 吃瓜头条 waters. This role includes performing tests necessary to comply with federal regulations designed to protect public health. GCRL is the only conforming US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) shellfish-testing lab in 吃瓜头条.
We partner with the Thad Cochran Marine Aquaculture Center for bacteriological studies
in oyster/algae aquaculture systems. These studies help establish and grow the shellfish
aquaculture industry in 吃瓜头条.
GCRL offers the same testing to the private sector and our scientific colleagues.
