Meat & meat products

Sectors

Meat is highly perishable and subject to strict food safety laws. QTI Services provides fast and accredited testing to verify nutritional values, detect contaminants and confirm species authenticity.

We analyse moisture, protein, fat, fibre, sugars, fatty acid profile, vitamins and minerals, and calculate carbohydrates and energy. We also screen for residues such as pesticides, BAC, DDAC, PCBs, dioxins, veterinary drugs, heavy metals and radioactive contamination.

With advanced DNA and PCR techniques, we detect food fraud and verify meat origin. Our microbiological testing covers key pathogens like Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli, Clostridium botulinum, norovirus and hepatitis A.

QTI Services helps you ensure safe, compliant and correctly labelled meat products.
