ISO 39026 Tetracycline Detection in Energy Bars

ISO 39026 Tetracycline Detection in Energy Bars

The detection and quantification of tetracycline residues in food products is critical to ensure compliance with international standards and regulatory requirements. This service focuses on the specific analysis of tetracycline in energy bars, adhering to ISO 39026:2018 for veterinary drug residue testing. The demand for energy bars has surged due to their portability and nutritional value, making it essential to ensure that they are free from any harmful residues.

Our laboratory employs advanced analytical techniques such as Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to achieve high sensitivity and specificity in detecting tetracycline. This method allows for the accurate quantification of trace amounts, ensuring compliance with strict regulatory limits set by authorities like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Commission.

The process begins with thorough sample preparation, which includes extraction followed by purification steps to remove interfering components. Our team of experts ensures that all samples are handled under stringent quality control measures to avoid contamination or degradation. Post-extraction, the samples undergo LC-MS/MS analysis, where the presence and concentration levels of tetracycline are determined.

ISO 39026:2018 provides a comprehensive framework for the detection of tetracycline residues in various food products, including energy bars. This standard covers not only analytical methodologies but also sample preparation procedures, instrumental requirements, and data interpretation guidelines. By adhering to these stringent protocols, we provide accurate and reliable results that can be trusted by our clients.

The significance of this test lies in its ability to safeguard public health by preventing the consumption of contaminated food products. Tetracycline is a broad-spectrum antibiotic commonly used in veterinary medicine; however, its presence in human foodstuffs could lead to adverse effects such as antibiotic resistance and allergic reactions. Regular testing ensures that only safe and compliant products reach consumers.

Our laboratory has extensive experience in handling diverse samples from different geographic locations, ensuring consistent results across various environments. With state-of-the-art equipment and skilled personnel, we deliver rapid turnaround times without compromising on accuracy or precision. Whether you are a manufacturer looking to maintain product quality or an auditor assessing compliance, our ISO 39026 Tetracycline Detection in Energy Bars service offers comprehensive solutions tailored to your needs.

Compliance with international standards like ISO 39026 is crucial for maintaining trust among consumers and regulatory bodies. Our laboratory maintains accreditation from reputable organizations such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and British Accreditation Council (BAC). These accreditations ensure that our testing processes meet rigorous quality assurance criteria.

Our commitment to excellence extends beyond technical proficiency; we also prioritize customer satisfaction by offering personalized services designed specifically for each client's unique requirements. From initial consultation through final report generation, our goal is to provide seamless support throughout the entire testing process.
