Food & Agricultural Testing
Nutrition panels, contaminants, adulterants, pesticide residues, mycotoxins and FSSAI label verification across processed food, spices, grains, oils, dairy and beverages.
Chemistry, trace instrumentation, microbiology and stability storage on a single Mumbai campus, which means one chain of custody, one coordinator and one report, whatever the product is.
Nutrition panels, contaminants, adulterants, pesticide residues, mycotoxins and FSSAI label verification across processed food, spices, grains, oils, dairy and beverages.
Assay, related substances, dissolution, content uniformity, residual solvents, elemental impurities, and full ICH stability programmes with in-house chambers.
Packaged drinking water, potable and process water, effluent and STP monitoring, ambient air and stack emissions, soil and sludge characterisation.
Indicator organisms, pathogen detection by culture and real-time PCR, sterility and bioburden, preservative efficacy, and shelf-life challenge studies.
Work that needs a designed study rather than a price list, usually because a claim, a launch or a consignment depends on it.
Heavy metals, banned and restricted substances, pH, viscosity, microbial limits, preservative efficacy and BIS conformity for skin, hair, oral and baby care products.
Overall and specific migration, heavy metals in printing inks, RoHS screening, seal strength, OTR and WVTR barrier testing for films, laminates, cans and closures.
Real-time and accelerated protocols with defined pull points, six ICH-compliant chambers under continuous logging, and a statistically defensible expiry recommendation.
Targeted screens for common economic adulterants, argemone in mustard oil, melamine in dairy, synthetic colours in spices, plus species identification by PCR.
Analytical support for label claims: high protein, no added sugar, source of fibre, fortification levels, and nutrient degradation over declared shelf life.
Where no standard method exists, we develop one and validate it for accuracy, precision, specificity, LOD and LOQ, linearity and robustness, with a full report.
Trained samplers for statistically valid lot sampling, water-source sampling, swabs and environmental monitoring across Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai and Pune.
Third-party verification programmes combining site inspection with blind sampling of incoming material, reported against your own specification.
Root-cause analytical work for out-of-specification results, consumer complaints, recalls and disputes between a buyer and a supplier.
Each package is a documented parameter list, not a loose bundle. Ask for the annexure and you will get every method reference and limit of quantification.

Parameter lists are indicative. Final panels are confirmed in your quotation against the specific product, market and standard.
Most clients arrive with either too many parameters or the wrong ones. Send us the product, the label and the market you are selling into, and our regulatory desk will map the minimum defensible panel, before you pay for anything.
Fill the sample submission form, print it, and send it with the sample. We will log it the day it lands and confirm the report date by email.
Give us the product and the destination market. We will come back with the panel, the price and the date, usually before the end of the working day.
