Contaminants

To ensure that your food and feed products are fit for consumption, you need to test for specific contaminants throughout the value chain.

For example, in concentrated levels, melamine, antibiotics and hormones can be harmful to animals and humans. Only thorough contaminants testing will determine if they – and other specific contaminants – are present. After finding such impurities, you can eliminate the relevant goods from the production and distribution chain.

Our contaminants monitoring services use the latest testing methods, including liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC MSMS), gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC MS) and polymer chain reaction (PCR).
