Processed Food pH Testing
In the food industry, ensuring that processed foods meet stringent quality and safety standards is critical. Proper management of pH levels in processed foods not only enhances taste but also plays a pivotal role in preserving product integrity and shelf life. This service focuses on accurately measuring the pH level of various processed food products, ensuring compliance with international standards such as ISO 6892-1:2015 and ASTM E478.
The importance of accurate pH measurements in processed foods cannot be overstated. Incorrect pH levels can lead to product spoilage, which not only affects the reputation of the manufacturer but also poses health risks to consumers. Our laboratory uses state-of-the-art equipment and follows rigorous procedures to ensure precise results every time. This includes using calibrated meters and reference standards that adhere to industry best practices.
Our team of experts understands the nuances of processed food pH testing, which involves a multi-step process. First, we carefully select the appropriate specimen for analysis based on the type of product being tested. For instance, solid foods like canned goods may require different handling than liquid beverages or jams. Once selected, specimens are prepared by homogenizing and filtering if necessary to ensure consistency.
The next step is selecting the right pH indicator and buffer solutions that match the expected pH range of the sample. Calibration of the pH meter using a standard buffer solution ensures accuracy before testing begins. The meter then records the pH value directly from the prepared specimen.
The process is not just about measuring; it's also about ensuring consistency and reliability across multiple batches. To achieve this, we employ advanced calibration protocols that align with ISO 8063:2017. This includes regular checks of pH meter performance using a range of buffer solutions to ensure accuracy.
Our laboratory adheres strictly to the latest international standards such as ISO 9001 for quality management and ISO/IEC 17025 for calibration and testing laboratories, ensuring that every test conducted is accurate and reliable. By doing so, we not only meet but often exceed industry expectations, providing data that can be trusted by regulators and stakeholders alike.
Our commitment to accuracy extends beyond the laboratory. We ensure that our clients receive detailed reports within a specified timeframe, which includes not only the pH value but also any additional insights into the chemical composition of the processed food product. These reports are invaluable tools for quality managers and R&D engineers in refining processes and maintaining consistency across production batches.
