Microbiology

We can provide information on the microbiology and quantify the components of your nutraceutical products accurately and efficiently. 

Our services include:

  • Microbial limit tests
  • Total plate counts of pathogenic bacteria (Listeria, Salmonella, E Coli O157: H7, gram positive staphylococci, etc.)
  • Antimicrobial preservative effectiveness testing
  • Identifying organisms (bacteria, yeasts, and molds)
  • Microbiological Testing for detection of pathogenic bacteria
  • Bacterial endotoxin testing
  • Microbial assays for antibiotics
  • Developing microbiological methods and research projects

Elemental Analysis by ICP-MS

Heavy metals testing by ICP-MS offers detection limits down to ppb and ppt levels on most matrices. If you have a limited sample size, heavy metals testing by ICP-MS is the method of choice.

  • ICP-MS is a very sensitive technique, having the lowest detection to ppb and ppt levels.
  • Allows small volumes to be quantified easily
  • Less waste to dispose of
  • The technique has definitive, multiple isotope identification (less prone to interferences)
  • Provides a rapid screening method for real pharmaceutical samples
  • Good agreement with fully quantitative analysis

Pesticides Analysis

In addition to the methods found in the EPA manuals for air, water, and soil, the FDA has published the Pesticide Analytical Manual (PAM) for residues on crops. AOAC (Quechers) has methods for processed foods, as well. 

Labofine also provides pesticide analysis using the USP and EP methods for pesticides in products used in drugs, so you can rest assured that the pesticide analysis for your nutraceuticals products will provide all the information you need.

Method Development and Validation

Our nutraceutical method development and validation services come in a wide range, from developing new analytical methods, to remediating (optimizing or improving) outdated procedures, and more. We can even help with your microbiological methods for your particular products and needs. 

If you need a new method developed, we will work with you to create one. Otherwise, we will prepare validation protocols and execute experiments according to Health Canada, FDA, and ICH guidelines for method validation of either your current method or the new one developed by our team. Our scientists are experienced in validating all kinds of procedures and other analytical techniques, including, but not limited to:

  • Titration and colorimetric techniques
  • Headspace GC/MS
  • HPLC and et IC

This wide array of analytical experience allows our team to achieve the goal of quickly generating protocols to help you meet regulatory demands and requirements. This will, in turn, help your operation stay efficient and minimize mutual efforts.
