Some of the nutraceuticals and herbal products that we test include capsules, tablets, powders, extracts, tinctures, syrups, and raw botanical materials.
Our laboratory provides physicochemical, analytical (UV, HPTLC), and microbiological testing (bacterial/fungal counts, pathogen detection) to ensure product quality, safety, and compliance.
You can submit your sample for testing either through our website or by visiting the lab. The quantity of the sample required, and the submission form will be shared before the testing begins.
Sample quantity varies by test: 20–50 g for physicochemical, 5–10 g for HPTLC/UV, and 20–30 g for microbiology tests. Exact quantities will be confirmed upon request.
Turnaround times vary: 3–5 days for physicochemical, 4–5 days for analytical, and 7 days for microbiological tests. Bulk or project-based testing may take longer.
We follow IP, API, and WHO guidelines to ensure compliant and reliable testing. Our processes are supported by in-house validated methods designed for specific products.
Yes, if your formulation requires a nonstandard or customized analytical method, our technical team can design and validate a method to suit your needs.
Yes, all completed tests come with a detailed report including methods used, observations, results, and analyst verification.
Laboratory testing helps confirm the identity of botanical ingredients, detect adulteration, measure active compounds, and ensure product safety and consistency before products are released to the market.
Yes. Research institutions and manufacturers use laboratory testing services to support formulation development, comparative studies, stability testing, and scientific validation of new products.
We screen for common contaminants, including E. coli, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, to ensure product safety and compliance.
Yes, our testing methodologies follow standard microbiological guidelines and are suitable for quality control and regulatory documentation.
Yes, BioTrace operates as a nutraceutical testing laboratory India and herbal testing laboratory India supporting product quality verification and regulatory compliance.
Yes, all client information and test results are strictly confidential. NDAs can be signed upon request.
BioTrace Labs provides analytical and microbiological testing services for food, herbal, nutraceutical, cosmetic, and agricultural products. Our laboratory supports product quality validation, contamination detection, phytochemical analysis, and regulatory compliance.
Industries such as food manufacturing, herbal product processing, nutraceutical production, cosmetics manufacturing, agriculture, and research institutions rely on laboratory testing to verify product safety, quality, and compliance with regulatory standards.
Common microbiological tests include Total Plate Count (TPC), yeast and mold detection, pathogen screening (such as Salmonella and E. coli), and coliform analysis to evaluate product hygiene and contamination risks.
BioTrace uses advanced analytical instrumentation such as HPLC, HPTLC, LC-MS, ICP-MS, and UV-Visible spectrophotometers to analyze chemical composition, detect impurities, and verify active compounds.
Test results are provided in structured reports or Certificates of Analysis (COA) that document the methods used, test results obtained, and relevant observations for quality evaluation.
Yes. Analytical techniques such as HPTLC and chromatographic fingerprinting are commonly used to detect substitution, contamination, or adulteration in herbal and botanical products.
