GMO-Free Verification Testing in Dairy Products
In today’s global market, ensuring that dairy products are GMO-free is a critical aspect of maintaining consumer trust and regulatory compliance. This service provides comprehensive verification to detect the presence of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in milk and its derived products such as cheese, butter, yogurt, and whey proteins.
The process involves rigorous sample preparation followed by sophisticated analytical techniques that can identify even trace levels of GMO materials. For instance, we use quantitative PCR methods aligned with international standards to quantify the presence of specific GMO sequences. This approach ensures accurate results down to parts per million sensitivity levels.
Our testing facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment including real-time PCR machines and DNA extraction kits that adhere strictly to ISO 17025 accreditation criteria for accuracy, precision, and reliability. The entire process is meticulously controlled from sample receipt through final report generation.
Clients can expect a detailed report outlining the test methodology used, raw data obtained, interpretation of results, and recommendations if any discrepancies are found regarding GMO content in their samples.
By partnering with us, organizations involved in dairy production or supply chains gain assurance about the integrity of their products while also complying with increasingly stringent regulatory requirements around the world.
