ESR part of response to formula threat

ESR is part of the Government and industry response dealing with a criminal blackmail threat concerning the contamination of infant and other milk-powder-based formula. We will assist the Ministry for Primary Industries and Police in a sampling/testing/toxicology workstream by examining any products referred to us from Police under an agreed triage criteria and response protocol.
