In the dietary supplement and ingredient industry, protecting consumer health and meeting regulatory expectations are nonnegotiable. One critical aspect of quality control is residual solvent testing. Residual solvents, volatile chemicals used during manufacturing, can remain in products if not properly removed.
As the pet supplement market continues to expand, particularly in preventative care, accurate quantification of MSM has become essential. Manufacturers require robust analytical methods to ensure that label claims are substantiated and that formulations meet quality standards while complying with AAFCO ingredient definitions and state feed regulations.
When evaluating fiber testing approaches, it’s important to review how results differ across sample matrices tested by both the new and previous methods. More laboratories are implementing the Rapid Integrated Dietary Fiber Methods - AOAC Official Methods 2017.16 and 2022.01. The AOAC 2017.16 method measures the insoluble fiber fraction (IDF) and soluble fiber fraction that precipitates in 78% ethanol (SDFP) together, and separately measures the soluble dietary fiber not precipitated in 78% ethanol (SDFS) by HPLC.
In the competitive and highly regulated pet food industry, ingredient authenticity is more than a quality metric; it's a cornerstone of consumer trust and brand integrity. As demand for functional ingredients grows, so does the risk of adulteration. Manufacturers must be equipped with advanced testing strategies to safeguard their supply chains and ensure label claims are accurate.
Postbiotics, defined as non-viable microbial cells, their components, or metabolites that confer health benefits to the host, represent a rapidly expanding frontier in microbiome research and functional ingredient development. Watch this webinar for a comprehensive look at the rapidly evolving field of postbiotics, combining cutting-edge science, global regulatory insights, and practical testing methodologies.
