Sample Analysis

Samples are prepared and analysed in accordance with established guidelines and standards, ensuring accurate and credible measurement of the analysed active ingredients.

We routinely analyse the content of vitamins, including water-soluble vitamins: C and B-complex: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 (folic acid, methylfolate) and B12 (cyanocobalamin, methylcobalamin) and fat-soluble vitamins: A, D3, E and K (K1, K2-MK4 and MK7, K3), in food supplements, beverages, functional foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and related products.

In addition, we perform analyses for the content determination of:

    • minerals (iron, zinc, magnesium, calcium, iodine, selenium..),
    • small proteins and peptides
    • amino acids
    • artemisinin
    • curcumin
    • caffeine
    • taurin
    • NAC
    • boswelic acid
    • quercetine
    • melatonine
    • glucosamine sulphate
    • coenzyme Q10
    • beta carotene
    • resveratrol
    • carvacrol
    • sulforaphane
    • L-carnitine
    • active compounds of echinacea,
    • various sugars etc.

For newly developed products it is IMPORTANT to:

1

Define and confirm the declared content of the active ingredients in the product to ensure correct labelling on the product packaging. If the content of active ingredients is too high, it can lead to undesirable side effects and potential toxicity, while if the content of active ingredients in the product is too low, the desired effect will not be achieved. Confirm the authenticity and purity of the raw materials in order to avoid future problems after production is completed. Check the presence of controlled and prohibited substances. For example, the presence of synthetic active substances in “natural food supplements” or the presence of heavy metals. Perform stability tests and determine the shelf life of the products. In case of confirmed product instability within the predicted shelf life, changes in the formulation and optimization of the production process are required, which we offer as part of consulting services.

If you want to produce a safe and stable quality product, or just to improve an existing one and offer a product with added value, count on us as a reliable partner to help you achieve your business goals.
