ISO 75390 Patulin Screening in Fruit-Based Feed Additives
The presence of patulin in fruit-based feed additives can pose significant risks to animal health and safety. This is particularly critical for livestock, poultry, and pet food production industries where quality assurance plays a crucial role.
ISO 75390, the internationally recognized standard for patulin testing in feeds, ensures that food products are safe for consumption by humans and animals alike. By adhering to this stringent protocol, we provide clients with reliable data to support regulatory compliance and ensure product safety.
The process involves a combination of sample preparation techniques followed by instrumental analysis using advanced chromatographic methods. This approach allows us to detect even trace amounts of patulin in fruit-based feed additives efficiently. Our laboratory employs state-of-the-art equipment, such as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), which guarantees accurate results.
The testing methodology outlined in ISO 75390 ensures that samples are prepared correctly before analysis. This includes homogenization of the sample and extraction using appropriate solvents. After this preparatory step, the sample undergoes chromatographic separation to separate patulin from other components. Finally, mass spectrometry identifies and quantifies the presence of patulin.
Our team of experts follows all standard operating procedures meticulously, ensuring consistent and accurate results every time. With our commitment to quality assurance and continuous improvement, we maintain strict adherence to ISO 75390 guidelines throughout each stage of the testing process.
This service is essential for maintaining high standards in food safety and quality control within the feed industry. By detecting patulin early on, potential hazards can be mitigated effectively, thereby protecting both animal health and public safety.
Our expertise lies not only in executing these tests but also in interpreting their results accurately so that informed decisions about product formulations or regulatory submissions can be made confidently.

Use Cases and Application Examples
In the poultry industry, where fruit-based additives are commonly used, timely detection of patulin is vital. For instance, a large-scale producer might run regular screenings to monitor incoming batches of raw fruits before they are processed into feed components.
A similar scenario applies in pet food manufacturing, where strict quality controls need to be maintained throughout the supply chain. By integrating ISO 75390 patulin testing into their workflow, companies can ensure that all products meet rigorous safety standards.
R&D teams involved in developing new feed formulations also benefit from this service. They can use the results obtained during initial trials to refine recipes and enhance overall product performance while keeping harmful contaminants at bay.
Procurement departments too have reason to appreciate our offerings since they play a key role in ensuring suppliers meet agreed-upon quality benchmarks. With reliable test outcomes, buyers gain assurance that their partners adhere to industry best practices.
