Standard Operating Procedures

I2I has collated a number of ‘best practice’ SOPs for the laboratory and semi-field testing of LLIN and IRS products from global testing sites. The SOPs have been reviewed by a panel of independent experts and are deliberately un-formatted for easy incorporation into site specific SOP files and adapted to location specific contexts.
