Thus, the food testing provide assurance to consumers that they don’t become a victim of economic fraud and that cut throat competition among food manufacturers is justified.

There is various form of in which analysis is done in Food Testing Lab in India.

1) Organic food testing, the laboratory ensures that food claimed to be organic should be free from synthetic chemicals and governed with strict guidelines. FSSAI Certification one thing to look for when someone buys organic food. Organic food does not only mean it is free of all chemicals but it actually means that itis grown without the use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. The organic food testing helps in locating the presence of any pesticides or fertilizers in same.

2) Dairy products testing includes analysis of milk, cheese, other dairy products, as well as products containing ingredients derived from milk, cheese, and other dairy products. These tests are done to determines, alkalinity, dispensability, fat, milk fat, Lactose, Milk Solids, Non –fat, moisture, minerals, Microbiological tests, etc.

3) Gluten free food test -Gluten is a complex protein found in wheat, barley, rye and triticale. People who are gluten intolerant means those people are wheat intolerant, an ingredient that presents in large number of packed foods. The other type of food testing are Pesticide residue analysis, food labeling, Vitamin D, vitamin E (low level), Niacin, Folic Acid, Vitamin B12 testing, presence of Phosphorus, Iodine, Potassium, Pantothenic Acid, Magnesium, Copper, Zinc, etc.

Fasta Laboratory is a leading Food testing Lab facility in India. We maintained a high reputation in food and beverage industry because of uncompromised ethical standards of food testing. Our state of the art infrastructure can conduct all sort of food testing necessary to obtain all kinds of Indian food certification.

Water is equalizing to life. It is the first requirement for every life on earth, hence it has to be pure, fresh and free of all harmful chemicals and pesticides. The earth has an abundance of water, but unfortunately, only a small percentage of about 0.3 percent, is usable by humans. It is the scarcity of drinking water that haunts all of us. To address the issues of water purity, Fastalab established a separate & specialized division for water analysis. It is one of the best and state of the art water testing lab that can analyse all sorts of water for home or industrial usage. The lab assures that the quality of water shouldn’t get compromised irrespective of its usage.

Water is used for different purposes with various chemical or mineral composition depending upon the requirements. For the composition and purity, each body of water needs to be analyzed at regular intervals to confirm its suitability for the purpose.

Types of Water Test

Water testing is done as per methods prescribed by respective authorities. For drinking water, BIS for all types of water. The lab for water testing understands the importance of the respective purity of the water for human & industrial consumption. The water testing lab knows the importance of minerals like Magnesium, calcium, and potassium for human health. Minerals contribute to strong teeth, bones, healthy skin and hair. They are also very important for the growth and development of the body. Fasta laboratory has the state of art facility to test the drinking water as per prescribed quality standards. Simultaneously, water used for industrial purposes should be compatible with machines. Hence Fasta laboratories can serve you with following types of water tests:

1) Packaged Drinking Water as per BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) IS 14543:2016

2) Packaged natural mineral water as per BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) IS 13428:2005

3) Water Analysis as per WHO Guidelines

4) Waste Water as per GPCB / CPCB Guidelines

In all this forms of Water testing, we at Fasta laboratory do a different testing as,

    • Chemical analysis to identify and quantify the chemical components and properties of water samples. The type and sensitivity of the analysis depend on the purpose of the analysis and the anticipated use of the water.
    • Pesticide residues in surface water and sediments are extremely important because of their potential impacts on aquatic ecosystems and their implications on drinking water sources. Pesticide contamination of freshwater is causing concern with respect to long-term and low-dose effects of pesticides on public health, as well as their impact on no target species.
    • Trace Element Analysis, The concentrations of trace elements in our drinking water affect its safety and acceptability for use. In the Fasta laboratory, we assure that water has a balance of trace elements in drinking water.
  • Microbiology Analysis, It represents one aspect of water quality. The microbiological analytical procedure uses samples of water and from these samples determines the concentration of bacteria.
