Infant Formula Organic Compound Screening
In today’s stringent regulatory environment, ensuring the safety and quality of infant formula is paramount. The organic compounds present in these products can significantly impact their nutritional value and safety profile. This service focuses on comprehensive screening to identify potential contaminants or beneficial additives that may affect the product's intended use.
The process involves meticulous sample preparation followed by advanced analytical techniques designed to detect even trace amounts of organic compounds. Our laboratory adheres to rigorous quality control measures, ensuring accurate and reliable test results. This is crucial as both under- and over-limitations in certain organic compounds can lead to health risks for infants.
Our team uses state-of-the-art instrumentation such as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These tools allow us to differentiate between beneficial nutrients like essential fatty acids and potentially harmful substances. We also employ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for qualitative analysis of organic compounds.
The primary objective is not only to detect the presence of specific compounds but also to quantify them within acceptable limits specified by international standards such as ISO 26962, which outlines the composition and labeling requirements for infant formula. Compliance with these guidelines ensures that our clients meet regulatory expectations and protect public health.
Our approach is tailored towards understanding how different organic compounds contribute to the overall nutritional profile of infant formulas. By providing detailed reports highlighting identified compounds along with their concentrations, we empower stakeholders in making informed decisions about product formulations.
