Universe Testing Laboratory is a trusted Nuts Products Testing Lab in Erode, offering analytical testing for almonds, cashews, pistachios, walnuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, mixed nuts, nut powders, roasted nuts, nut butters, and value-added nut products.
Nuts require testing due to aflatoxin contamination, rancidity, oxidation, and adulteration risks.
The lab performs nutritional profiling including carbohydrates, sugars, proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and energy values. Microbiological testing screens for yeast, mold, and pathogens affecting freshness and shelf-life.
Chemical evaluations include fatty acid profiling, cholesterol testing, amino acid profiling, moisture, ash content, peroxide value and acidity analysis. Adulterant testing detects unauthorized oils, colors, starch, artificial flavors, and additives.
Safety testing covers pesticide residues, mycotoxins (Aflatoxins, Ochratoxins), heavy metals, synthetic food colors, and illegal dyes. Reports delivered within 3-5 days.
