9.05 2026 students of the first semester of the M.Sc. in Agriculture with supervisor dr. With Piotr Ponichtera, they participated in laboratory exercises carried out under the subject 'Agricultural research methods' at the Institute for Plant Protection in Bialystok. The aim was to introduce students to modern analytical methods used in the quality and safety testing of agricultural products. During the exercises, students prepared samples for the detection of pesticide residues in agricultural products using liquid chromatography. The participants learned about the next steps in preparing the material for laboratory analysis and how to ensure the reliability of the results obtained. During the visit, the students also observed the work of a liquid chromatograph and a gas chromatograph and learned about the principle of operation of analytical equipment used in research laboratories. Special thanks to Prof. Dr Hab. Bożeny Łozowickiej - Head of the Field Experimental Station IOR - PIB in Białystok and her team, for organizing and conducting classes.
