ISO 111629 Stability Profiling in Sports Drinks
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has set forth the standard ISO 111629, which specifies methodologies and procedures to profile the stability of sports drinks over time. This service is essential for ensuring that products maintain their nutritional value, taste, and quality throughout their shelf life.
This test is particularly critical in the food and beverage industry, where maintaining product integrity is paramount. Sports drinks are a specialized category within this sector, often containing electrolytes, sugars, vitamins, and minerals. The stability of these ingredients can be affected by temperature, humidity, light exposure, and storage time. Understanding how these factors impact the drink's composition allows manufacturers to optimize their formulation and packaging for maximum product life.
The testing process involves simulating real-world conditions that a sports drink might encounter during its shelf life. This includes exposing samples to various temperatures (e.g., 4°C, 25°C, 40°C) and humidity levels over extended periods. The stability of key ingredients such as electrolytes, sugars, vitamins, and minerals is monitored at regular intervals.
The methodology is designed to provide a comprehensive profile of the product's stability by measuring various parameters like osmolality, pH, viscosity, and nutrient content. By conducting these tests in controlled environments that mimic different storage conditions, manufacturers can identify potential quality issues early on and make necessary adjustments before the product reaches the market.
Our laboratory adheres strictly to ISO 111629 guidelines, ensuring accurate and reliable results. Our team of experts uses advanced analytical instruments to perform these tests with precision and consistency. The insights gained from this profiling are invaluable for quality control, formulation optimization, and regulatory compliance.
