Why to choose Xpert International
We are the only organism certified to operate under (UE) No 178/2010 – (CE) No 401/2006 regulation ISO 17025.
The sample homogeneity is paramount in aflatoxin testing, and the European Union makes special emphasis on this specific topic. To make the tests, we process the sample in vertical mill homogenizers which produce slurries that contain particles smaller than 1 mm and low size dispersion.
In terms of variability, the homogenization through slurries leads to the lowest possible CVs determination of mycotoxins in a lot. Consequently, the chances of false positive or false negative diminish.
Peroxide and acidity index are methods we apply over oil extracted using cold solvent departing from the original sample. Peroxide index according to norm ISO 3960:2010 and acidity under norm UNE-EN ISO 660:2009.
Fatty matter measure is made according to norm ISO 669:2009 taking the smallest particle 0, 1 µm obtained through ball mill.
Pesticide residues: we test more than 450 active ingredients.
