Residue analysis
Other Contaminants

Besides heavy metals and mycotoxines there are a lot of other contaminants which unintentionally get in touch with foods and preliminary products. Of great importance are anthropogenic pollutants which contaminate food by emission of industry and traffic, combustion of fossil fuels or through the contact with packaging materials and processing aids. Yet another area are residues of veterinary medical products which arouse more interest.

Here are some of the analysis methods we offer in this field:

  • Aromatical hydrocarbons (Benzene, Toluene, Xylene)
  • Polycyclic aromatical hydrocarbons (for example Benzo(a)pyren)
  • Solvent residues (Hexane, Ethylmethylketone and other)
  • Halogenic hydrocarbons
  • Polychlorinated biphenyls
  • Mineral oil carbohydrats
  • Veterinary medical product residues (Chloramphenicol, Nitrofurane and other)
  • Radioactive Nuclides
  • and many more

We are gladly at your disposal at any time for more detailed information.
