FOOD TESTING LABORATORIES

Scope of Analysis  

• Physio-chemical and Sensory evaluation of Food. 
• Identification test and Assay determination by chemical, gravimetric, FTIR, UV/Vis spectrophotometer, UPLC, LC-MS/MS, GC-HS, GC-MS/MS, ICP-MS with LC, TOC analyser etc. 
• Nutritional value testing as per FSSR labelling requirements. 
• Testing of fortified food. 
• Testing of Food adulterants and contaminants. 
• Fatty acid profiling by GC-FID analysis. 
• pH, melting point, boiling point, boiling range, optical rotation, refractive index, turbidity meter, ash values, Water content by Karl fisher and by Dean and Stark apparatus, Loss on drying with vaccum and without vaccum at different temperature etc. 
• Metal contaminants analysis by ICP-MS with LC system up to ppb level. 
• Quantitative analysis of Vitamins, Amino acids, Preservatives, Synthetic and Natural colours, Antioxidants, Polyphenols, Minerals etc. in food and feed by UPLC, ICP-MS and LC-MS/MS analysis. 
• Mycotoxins namely as Aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, G2 and M1 by LC-MS/MS analysis. 
• Naturally occurring toxin substances (NOTS) analysis by UPLC and LC-MS/MS.
