Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is residue analysis?

Residue analysis is the process of detecting and measuring trace amounts of substances—like pesticides, antibiotics, heavy metals, or mycotoxins—in food, agricultural, or environmental samples to ensure they meet safety and regulatory standards.

2. Why is residue analysis important?

It protects public health, ensures product compliance with national and international regulations, prevents trade rejections, and builds consumer trust—especially for exports, organic certification, and food safety audits.

3. Which products can be tested for residues?

We test a wide range of samples including:

  • Fruits and vegetables

  • Grains, cereals, spices

  • Milk, meat, poultry, and eggs

  • Soil and irrigation water

  • Processed foods and beverages

4. What kinds of residues can you detect?

We analyze for:

  • Pesticide residues

  • Veterinary drug residues

  • Antibiotics and hormones

  • Heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic)

  • Mycotoxins (aflatoxins, ochratoxins, etc.)

5. Which technologies are used in residue analysis?

We use advanced instruments such as:

  • GC-MS/MS (Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry)

  • LC-MS/MS (Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry)

  • ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry)

  • HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography)
