Testing Shrimp & Oysters

Wisconsin's food safety laboratory at the state Department of Agriculture is setting up to begin testing seafood from the Gulf of Mexico to see if it is tainted by petroleum from the massive BP oil leak. Some equipment for the testing has already come into the lab. Its director, Steve Sobek, tells us the lab will test primarily shrimp and oysters for petroleum and its by-products. The testing will measure whether the seafood is safe to eat. Only three other labs across the country are also testing. Sobek expects the testing to begin later this month.
