Quality Control
Nutraceutical dosages require proper analytics and our team is equipped to handle these measures. Complex product matrices require analytical expertise not available at most other laboratories. Our quality control team provides these internally and externally in two ways:
Research & Development Technical Services
Every product is unique and requires an assessment, having our team at the beginning of the process is critical. Whether it is product conception or product development, our team’s approach is meticulous and is handled on a case-by-case basis.
For new product concepts, we review processing of all materials, claim accuracy, and overall product assessment.
For products being considered for development, we provide specifications, descriptions, critical attributes, and controls to identify the unique requirement of the product.
Our technical services team collaborates with our research and development team along with our clients to compile all necessary documents required for the product. Certifications of Halal, organic, Non-GMO, allergen and other relevant documents are requested and reviewed to ensure all materials are appropriate for the product.
Quality Control Laboratory Services
To better serve clientele with product testing, our quality control suite consists of four laboratories, with one dedicated to method development, optimization and verification. Between analytical, wet chemistry and microbiology laboratories, our testing services and capabilities include:
Active Marker Analysis
