Universe Testing Laboratory is a leading Cereal Products Testing Lab in Erode, specializing in the analysis of cornflakes, oats, millets, muesli, breakfast cereals, puffed grains, flakes, multigrain mixes, and ready-to-eat cereal products.
Cereal items often undergo processing, extrusion, roasting, or flavoring, making laboratory testing crucial to ensure safety, nutrition, and compliance with FSSAI standards.
The lab provides complete nutritional profiling and label validation, including carbohydrates, sugars, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and energy analysis.
Microbiological testing evaluates contamination from yeast, mold, and pathogens resulting from improper storage or handling.
Chemical evaluations encompass fatty acid profiling, cholesterol, amino acid profiling, and detailed physical chemical analysis for moisture, bulk density, texture, pH, ash content and shelf-life.
Safety assessments detect pesticide residues, mycotoxins (Aflatoxins, Ochratoxins) commonly associated with cereal grains along with heavy metals and synthetic food colours & illegal dyes.
