Report

Experience since 2003
Consulting and training
We consult, run training and audit laboratories against LVS EN ISO/IEC 17025.
Research
From 2020 to 2023 we worked with the University of Latvia and Riga Technical University on a laser speckle device designed to cut microbial counting time by two to six times.
Shelf-life validation
Microorganisms are one of the main causes of product spoilage. Testing can confirm that microbiological parameters still comply at the end of the shelf life.
Together with you we draw up the shelf-life study plan, choosing the most suitable tests and testing times while respecting your wishes and budget.
We store product samples under the right conditions, including set temperatures, until the testing plan is complete.
Storage temperatures
- −18 °C
- 2…6 °C
- 22 °C
- 25 °C
- 30 °C
We prepare the test report and, on request, an explanation of the results with an assessment of compliance.
