ISO 40538 Selenium Profiling in Dairy Feed

ISO 40538 Selenium Profiling in Dairy Feed

ISO 40538 Selenium Profiling in Dairy Feed

The ISO 40538 standard provides a comprehensive methodology for profiling selenium content in dairy feed. This service is essential for ensuring the accurate measurement of selenium, an important trace element that plays a pivotal role in animal health and productivity. Selenium is critical for its antioxidant properties, immune function support, and thyroid hormone synthesis. In dairy farming, inadequate selenium levels can lead to reduced milk yield, poor reproductive performance, and increased susceptibility to diseases.

Our laboratory adheres strictly to the ISO 40538 standard when performing selenium profiling in dairy feed. The process begins with thorough sample preparation, ensuring that all feed components are evenly distributed for accurate analysis. We use state-of-the-art instrumentation, including ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry) and atomic absorption spectrophotometers, which offer high precision and sensitivity.

Once the samples are prepared, they undergo a series of rigorous tests to identify the presence and concentration of selenium. The results are then reported in parts per million (ppm), providing a clear and concise picture of the selenium levels within the dairy feed. This information is invaluable for quality managers, compliance officers, and R&D engineers who need to ensure that their feed formulations meet regulatory requirements.

In addition to standard selenium profiling, our service also includes advanced techniques such as elemental fractionation, which helps in understanding how different forms of selenium (selenite vs. selenate) behave in the animal's body. This detailed information is crucial for optimizing feed additives and ensuring that they provide maximum benefit without causing adverse effects.

Our team of experienced analysts ensures that every test adheres to international standards, providing reliable and accurate data that can be trusted by clients worldwide. With our ISO 40538 certified laboratory, we guarantee consistent results that meet the highest quality standards.
