Applications/Examples of results
We have a track record of requests from a wide range of industries, including beverages, confectionery and baking, ingredients and additives, health foods, and seasonings, covering everything from raw materials to final products! We have received positive feedback regarding our quality assurance system, pricing, and delivery times. 【Inspection Examples】 - To verify the effectiveness of line cleaning, we request testing of wiping solutions for each product change (beverages). - Internally, we conduct quality control using immunochromatography kits. However, for simple tests, we request ELISA method testing on the same samples and regularly check for inconsistencies between the two results (ingredients and additives). - We set internal standards and request external testing once a year and during new product development (prepared foods). - We have established a testing system for ELISA and PCR methods internally and utilize third-party organizations for accuracy verification of results. Additionally, for monitoring tests of products claiming to be allergen-free, we request a comprehensive test of 25 items once a year (seasonings). - In Taiwan, our export destination, coconut is included in the allergens that require labeling, so we consulted to confirm product labeling (health foods). - The extraction method described in the notification method did not detect DNA, preventing the evaluation of contamination for the next product, so we requested VB high-purity extraction (seasonings).
