On this basis, the territorial department of Rosselkhoznadzor conducted an unscheduled inspection agreed with the Prosecutor’s Office with sampling and subsequent laboratory tests at the FGBI “ARRIAH”, which confirmed that the company sells egg products contaminated with drugs.

Also, traces of Trimethoprim were found in 4 samples taken as part of enhanced laboratory monitoring.

In addition, the Rosselkhoznadzor found that the company issued declarations of conformity for dry and liquid egg products based on the conclusion of phantom laboratories that are not available at registered addresses.
