Accidental contamination

Accidental contamination analysis aims to identify and quantify unwanted substances present in a product, ingredient, or production environment. These contaminants can be of chemical, physical, or biological origin, and their detection is essential to ensure product safety, regulatory compliance, and quality. This analysis is crucial in the food, cosmetics, nutrition, environmental, and materials sectors.

Investigations may include:
• Spectroscopic analyses (FTIR, Raman) to identify residues or foreign bodies
• Chromatographic analyses (GC-MS, LC-MS/MS) to detect traces of solvents, plasticizers, hydrocarbons, etc.
• Elemental analyses (ICP-MS) to detect metals or mineral impurities
• Visual or microscopic examinations to locate and characterize particles, fibers, films, etc.

The matrices concerned include: raw materials, finished products, packaging, water, powders, liquids, technical materials.

At YesWeLab , we collaborate with a rigorously selected network of laboratories, most of which are certified and/or accredited (ISO 17025, COFRAC, etc.). These laboratories are chosen based on your specific needs, the matrices to be analyzed, and the analytical techniques or methods required.
