Food contamination testing should ideally be an integral part of food product manufacturing process. Food items generally undergo a long process from the stage of production to processing and packaging. Contamination of packaged food items is commonly a result of chemicals used to process or package the product. A number of a variable factors may affect food and therefore, only a quality assuring, authentic, transparent, and genuine testing facility should conduct food contamination testing.
These chemicals may include food allergens, pesticide residues, veterinary drug residues, heavy metal residues, organic & inorganic pollutants, radionuclides, mycotoxins, PCBs (Polychlorinated biphenyls), GMOs (Genetically modified organisms), melamine, etc. Consumption of these chemicals can lead to severe health problems such as cancer, nervous system disorders, and even death.
