Food Lab
Welcome to Visiontek Consultancy Services’ Food Lab, where we provide comprehensive analysis and testing services to ensure food safety, quality, and compliance with regulatory standards. Our state-of-the-art laboratory, equipped with advanced technology and a team of expert scientists, is dedicated to providing accurate and reliable results. Explore our range of services below to discover how we can help you maintain the highest standards in the food industry.
Our Services
Microbiological Testing
Our Microbial Identification service involves identifying and characterizing microorganisms present in your samples. Using advanced techniques such as DNA sequencing and biochemical analysis, we accurately identify bacterial, fungal, and viral strains. This information is vital for quality assurance, contamination control, and product development.
Physical, Physiochemical and Nutritional Testing
We at VISIONTEK, offer a broad range of techniques and in-depth expertise to determine the physiochemical characterizations of raw materials and processed food products. We offer facility for analytical testing for determining the chemical composition, processing, quality control and contamination of food. We follow the national and international regulations and methods to analyse the products as per the guidelines of FSSAI, FDA and other mandatory guidelines.
Pesticide Residues Testing
We at VISIONTEK, carryout pesticide residue testing to identify the pesticides residue levels in food products through an in-depth chemical and microbiological analysis that gives food manufactures and producers confidence in their product ingredients. We provide accurate pesticides residue analysis of the food products to comply with the relevant guidelines and standards for minimizing levels of harmful pesticides, fungicides and herbicides in the food chain and the same will help to comply with the local and international standards.
Antibiotic Testing
We at VISIONTEK, are committed to provide comprehensive analytical testing services regarding antibiotic residues in various food categories such as marine products, milk and milk products, and animal feeds. Our testing protocols at VISIONTEK are designed to detect antibiotic residues in complex food matrices with high sensitivity and accuracy. We use advanced analytical techniques including LCMS-MS (Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry) and microbiological assays to identify and quantify antibiotics at trace levels, meeting stringent detection limits prescribed by international and national regulatory authorities.
Aflatoxin and Mycotoxin Testing
At VISIONTEK, we offer state-of-the-art analytical testing services specifically tailored for the detection and quantification of aflatoxins and other mycotoxins in food and feed matrices. We recognize the critical importance of mycotoxin testing, particularly for aflatoxins, which are among the most toxic mycotoxins known. Aflatoxins are produced primarily by Molds such as Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasitises, which commonly infect crops including maize (corn), peanuts, tree nuts, cottonseed, and various grains, contaminating crops during growth, harvest, and storage.
Heavy Metal Testing
At VISIONTEK, we specialize in advanced analytical techniques for heavy metal testing across various matrices including water, food, and feed ensuring safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Classical techniques such as Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) with graphite furnace or cold vapor are complemented by state-of-the-art Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Thus, our portfolio includes a range of sophisticated techniques tailored to achieve the lowest detection limits for heavy metals across a broad spectrum.
