## Description

USDA-APHIS-PPQ requires a set of product chemistry registration studies to be completed on a pesticide end use product called “Spinosad Fruit Fly Bait” which contains 1.8% w/w Spinosad in accordance with Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) Good Laboratory Practices (GLPs) [1].

These product chemistry studies must follow the EPA study guidelines OPPTS 830.6317 (storage stability), 830.6320 (corrosion characteristics), 830.6302 (color), 830.6304 (odor), 830.6303 (physical state), 830.7300 (bulk density), 830.6313 (stability to normal and elevated temperatures, metals, and metal ions) [2].

The Government will provide the contract laboratory the Spinosad technical reference standard and an appropriate analytical chemistry method to be used in the applicable study guidelines listed above (830.6317/6313). As part of this contract, the contract laboratory will produce a GLP-compliant Certificates of Analysis (CoA) for the Spinosad technical reference standard and validate the provided analytical chemistry method in accordance with the GLPs prior to completing the studies listed above.

The resulting final reports for the product chemistry registration studies listed above must also meet the FIFRA GLP requirements and EPA's data submission format requirements (EPA PRN 2011-3: Standard Format for Data Submitted Under FIFRA and Certain Provisions of FFDCA [3]) to support a future pesticide registration application to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
