Institute of Pesticide Formulation Technology (IPFT)

Institute of Pesticide Formulation Technology (IPFT), established on May 31, 1991 is an autonomous Institution under the Department of Chemicals & Petrochemicals (DC&PC), Ministry of Chemicals & Fertilizers, Government of India and a registered Society under the Societies Registration Act–1860. IPFT is the only Institute of its kind devoted to the development of state of art user and environment friendly new generation pesticide formulation technologies. The institute has established a healthy rapport with the Indian Agrochemical Industries and has been able to successfully transfer technologies for safer, efficient and environment friendly formulations.

IPFT has state-of-art laboratories and is fully equipped with sophisticated analytical instruments such as GC, HPLC, GC-MS, GC-MS/MS, LC-MS/MS, LC-HRMS (LC/Q-TOF), UV-VIS Spectrophotometer, Semi-Preparative HPLC, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Particle size analyser, Zetasizer etc. for undertaking various research studies.

IPFT has state-of-art The Institute extends its support to the agrochemical industries by designing experiments to determine the dissipation and degradation behavior and residual fate of pesticides on various agricultural/ horticultural crops and in the environment. Analytical Laboratory is accredited by NABL as per ISO/IEC – 17025: 2017 for the testing of pesticides (Technical & Formulations), pesticide residues (Scope of 168 pesticide molecules) in various food matrices and CWC related chemicals. The Lab is BIS Recognized / Certified as per Lab Recognition Scheme for the testing of pesticide formulations. IPFT is recognized by CIB & RC for bio-efficacy (for pesticides to be registered for use in household and for persistence & residue studies).
