メイプルバイオラボラトリーズ List of Products and Services

(Our company has obtained licenses for cosmetics manufacturing and cosmetics manufacturing and sales, and tests will be conducted by clinical laboratory technicians in testing facilities (BSL2) in accordance with the Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act.) We will determine the level of microbial contamination from the detected colonies and report it in a list. In standard tests, we conduct examinations as a set for total viable count (an indicator of microbial contamination), coliform bacteria (an indicator of environmental contamination from dust, etc.), Escherichia coli (fecal contamination), and Staphylococcus aureus (caused by injuries to the hands of workers). If desired, it is also possible to add Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Campylobacter, Bacillus cereus, O157, MRSA, periodontal bacteria, Legionella, Serratia, etc.

• Hygiene Management

In standard testing, total viable count, coliforms, E. coli, and Staphylococcus aureus are tested as a set. Upon request, it is also possible to add Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Campylobacter, Bacillus cereus, O157, MRSA, periodontal pathogens, Legionella, Serratia, etc. Measurement of antibacterial activity using the above microorganisms (inhibition zone, mixed culture) is also possible. The method for calculating the coal tar coefficient involves varying the concentration of the antibacterial substance in several ways and varying the reaction time with the microorganisms at several points, performing a mixed culture that combines concentration and reaction time. This allows us to determine the relationship between the concentration of the antibacterial substance and the reaction time, enabling the assessment of the immediate and sustained efficacy of the antibacterial agent. Preservative efficacy testing (compliant with JP, USP, EP) involves dropping five types of microorganisms into pharmaceuticals, etc., and measuring the microbial count after a certain storage period. This method investigates the effectiveness of microbial control when microbial contamination occurs in the relevant pharmaceuticals, etc. Aseptic testing determines whether there is no microbial contamination in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, etc.

• Safety Management

We visit restaurants, food stores, food factories, supermarket backyards, coffee shops, hotel kitchens, golf course kitchens, funeral home kitchens, etc., on a regular monthly basis to conduct wipe tests using swabs on the equipment within the manufacturing facilities. We assess the level of microbial contamination based on the colonies detected and report the findings in a summary table. In standard testing, we conduct tests as a set for total viable count (an indicator of microbial contamination), coliform bacteria (an indicator of environmental contamination from dust, etc.), E. coli (fecal contamination), and Staphylococcus aureus (caused by cuts on the hands of food handlers). If desired, we can also add tests for Salmonella (bacterial contamination of meat), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (bacterial contamination of fish), Campylobacter (bacterial contamination of poultry), etc. Typically, we perform wipe tests at five locations and take one sample of food for testing, while simultaneously checking and noting the hygiene conditions through visual inspection. The results are compiled into a scoring sheet, allowing for easy observation of fluctuations throughout the year. (Compliance with the Food Sanitation Act and HACCP)

• Hygiene Management

Expiration Date Setting Test The expiration date indicates the period during which food can be safely consumed, typically focusing on perishable ingredients and showing a short duration of a few days to a few weeks. It is often determined based on the proliferation of microorganisms. Best Before Date Setting Test The best before date indicates the period during which food can be enjoyed at its best quality, usually focusing on shelf-stable ingredients and showing a longer duration of a few weeks to several years. It is often determined based on indicators such as water activity, oil acidity, and the denaturation of components like proteins. Accelerated Testing; When setting the best before date, conducting tests over a long period can often be impractical, so a method is employed to shorten the storage period by raising the storage temperature and using theoretical calculations (Arrhenius equation = when the temperature increases by 10°C, the reaction time doubles) to conduct accelerated testing.

• Safety Management

We will send food ingredients and products from restaurants, food stores, food factories, supermarket backyards, coffee shops, hotel kitchens, golf course kitchens, funeral home kitchens, etc., and conduct microbiological testing. We will examine the level of microbial contamination in food and ingredients based on the colonies detected. We will provide indicators of the hygiene status of the ingredients being manufactured. In standard testing, we conduct tests as a set for total viable count (an indicator of bacterial contamination), coliform bacteria (an indicator of environmental contamination from dust, etc.), E. coli (fecal contamination), and Staphylococcus aureus (caused by cuts on the hands of food handlers). If desired, we can also add tests for Salmonella (bacterial contamination of meat), Vibrio parahaemolyticus (bacterial contamination of fish), Campylobacter (bacterial contamination of chicken), lactic acid bacteria, fungi (molds, yeasts), etc. We will conduct tests to establish the expiration date and best-before date of food products. In the case of measuring the best-before date, if the storage period is long, it is also possible to conduct accelerated tests. (In compliance with the Food Sanitation Act)

The metabolism of products, along with product development and research and development for that purpose, is essential for corporate growth. However, product development and research and development require significant upfront investments in manpower, development equipment, facilities, etc., making in-house development challenging in the current situation. To avoid the risks associated with in-house development, outsourcing research and development to external research institutions is known as contract research and development. We have obtained licenses for cosmetics manufacturing and sales. 【Examples of Contract Manufacturing】 Soap Toner Emulsion Serum Face masks, etc. *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.
