Functional and Bioactive Analysis
We conduct specialized analyses to accurately determine the functional profile of your products:
- Quantification of bioactive compounds: beta-glucans, polyphenols, flavonoids, omega-3/6 fatty acids, adaptogens, and other active ingredients.
- Antioxidant capacity: evaluation through validated methods (ORAC, DPPH, FRAP) to support antioxidant claims.
- Gastrointestinal release profile: simulation of ingredient behavior during digestion to understand their real bioavailability.
Technical note:
Although not all methods are pre-developed, we have the capacity to develop and validate our own analytical methods for small molecules determinable by HPLC-UV or HPLC-FLD, adapting to the specific needs of your ingredient.
These analyses allow you to support functional claims with objective data, differentiate yourself from the competition with verifiable information, and understand how your ingredients actually behave in the body.
Ideal for:
Functional food developers, supplement manufacturers, bioactive ingredient suppliers, and companies seeking to validate nutritional or functional claims.
