Measures aflatoxins (B1 and total) and ochratoxin A.

The EU and other markets set limits on these mycotoxins for many spices and dried products.

Often used for: Black pepper, chilli, nutmeg, other spices, desiccated coconut.

How it works

1. Tell us the product, the lot or supplier if you know it, and the destination market.
2. We reply with the laboratory, the test method, the turnaround and the full cost. We say whether the test is ISO/IEC 17025 accredited at that lab.
3. A sample is drawn from the lot and delivered to the lab.
4. The laboratory issues its report in its own name, directly to you.

Priced per sample, not per kilo, so testing 100 grams costs the same as testing a container. Nothing is charged until you approve the quote. You can also name a laboratory yourself, including one in your own country.

How lab testing and COAs work

What to send us

• The product and the lot or supplier, if known
• The destination market, so results are read against its limits
• Whether you need aflatoxins, ochratoxin A or both
• How many samples you want tested

Mycotoxins are not spread evenly through a lot, so how the sample is drawn matters. Tell us if your buyer sets a sampling plan and we pass it to the laboratory.
