Universe Testing Laboratory is a leading Shelf-Life Testing Lab in Salem, providing scientific evaluation to determine how long food and beverage products remain safe, stable, and of acceptable quality.
Shelf-life studies help manufacturers identify microbial growth, chemical changes, sensory deterioration, and safety risks over time, making them essential for product release, packaging decisions, and FSSAI compliance.
Universe Testing Laboratory conducts complete microbial analysis throughout the storage period to monitor the development of harmful and spoilage organisms.
The lab also measures Total Plate Count (TPC), Aerobic Microbial Count, and Total Bacterial Count to evaluate overall microbial behaviour during the product's intended shelf-life.
Additionally, yeast and mould testing is performed to detect fungal spoilage, which is critical for bakery items, snacks, dairy products, beverages, and ready-to-eat foods.
Universe Testing Laboratory follows controlled storage conditions such as ambient, refrigerated, accelerated, or stress testing, depending on product requirements.
