Constituents
Enzymatic tests are essential analytical tools used for the precise and reliable determination of sugars, acids, alcohols, and other key food components in a wide range of products, including fruit juices, wine, beer, dairy products, eggs, and meat. These tests support quality control, process monitoring, and regulatory compliance across the food and beverage industry.
Food Adulteration
The varying prices and availability of food products from different origins create opportunities for the incorrect declaration or misrepresentation of food components. Adulteration can occur both in terms of quality and quantity, compromising product integrity, misleading consumers, and potentially posing safety and regulatory risks across the food supply chain.
Food Allergens
For most people, consuming food is harmless, but for those with food allergies, it can cause life-threatening reactions and significantly impact their quality of life. Even trace amounts of allergens can trigger severe symptoms, making accurate detection, clear labelling, and strict quality control essential to protect vulnerable consumers and ensure their safety.
Genetically Modified Organisms
Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) commonly include soy, maize, and rapeseed. Screening for plant extrinsic gene sequences introduced during GMO development detects the presence of any GMOs, supporting accurate identification, regulatory compliance, and quality assurance throughout the production chain, even when only small amounts of modified material are present.
Microbiology
Food contaminated with microorganisms such as bacteria, yeasts, moulds, or viruses can pose significant risks to consumers. In addition to detecting pathogenic microorganisms, monitoring typical spoilage organisms is crucial to minimise production losses, maintain product quality, and prevent costly recalls, ensuring safer food throughout the entire manufacturing and distribution process.
Mycotoxins
Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by moulds. They can have serious acute and chronic effects on the health of humans as well as animals, making effective monitoring essential. Modern test kits allow rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis of mycotoxins, supporting reliable screening, regulatory compliance, and improved safety across food and feed production.
Residues
When food-producing animals are treated with antibiotics, hormones, or anabolics, drug residues can remain in the animal’s meat and milk, posing health risks to consumers. Effective monitoring and residue testing are essential to ensure regulatory compliance, protect public health, and maintain trust in the safety and integrity of animal-derived food products.
Vitamins
A lot of foods are fortified with vitamins, for example juices, dairy products, baby food, cereals, sweets, tablets, and vitamin mixtures. To measure the exact concentration of vitamins in food, we offer a wide portfolio of test systems, providing accurate, reliable, and efficient analysis to support quality control, regulatory compliance, and nutritional labelling across the food industry.
