Utilizing high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), we detect and quantify aflatoxins, ensuring that nut products are free from these potent mycotoxins that can pose serious health risks.

Moisture Content

Karl Fischer Titration

We determine the moisture content in nuts using Karl Fischer titration, a critical parameter for assessing the freshness and susceptibility to microbial contamination

Nutrient Profiling

Protein, Fat, and Carbohydrate Content

Employing various methods, including Kjeldahl and Soxhlet extraction, we quantify essential nutrients, providing insights into the nutritional value of nuts and nut-based products.

Microbial Contamination

Total Plate Count

Utilizing agar plating, we assess the overall microbial load, ensuring that nuts meet strict hygiene standards.

Yeast and Mold Count

Employing culture-based methods, we evaluate the presence of yeast and mold, safeguarding against spoilage and potential health risks.

Allergen Detection

Common Allergens

Using ELISA and PCR techniques, we identify the presence of common allergens, such as peanuts and tree nuts, enabling manufacturers to adhere to labeling requirements and ensuring consumer safety.

Oxidative Stability

Peroxide Value and Free Fatty Acids

Employing titration methods, we assess the oxidative stability of nut oils and fats, crucial for determining the shelf life and overall quality of nut-based products.
