Quality Assurance of Herbal Products
We at Elite Informatics are strongly committed to ensuring our herbal products' total and foolproof safety. To assure our pristine natural products' purity, effectiveness, and trustworthiness, we have carefully selected and designed our quality testing program.
Our stringent and sui generis quality testing program comprises numerous tests and evaluation techniques that check all our manufactured herbal products' quality, consistency, and potency. What is fascinating is that quality testing is conducted at every step, i.e., from raw materials to produced goods.
Our team of dedicated scientists and researchers put their paramount efforts into maintaining the safety and reliability of our ayurvedic supplements.
Below, we are duly mentioning all the laboratory tests undertaken on the samples, and the measurement values are then compared with the standard specifications.
- Ash Testing - Ash testing is carried out to measure the number of minerals present in the sample. The first and foremost step includes putting the sample under testing inside a container known as an ash muffle. Then this sample is incinerated by putting the muffle inside a hot oven such that all the organic contents are burnt, leaving only residual ash. More is the amount of ash; more is the mineral content of that particular sample.
- Microbiological Testing - With the help of an instrument called a bactometer. Our scientists conduct microbiological testing to determine the purity and quality of the herbal components of the sample. Through the aid of a bactometer, the growth of an organism is tested using a change of electrical signal passing the sample.
- E-coli Testing - E-coli bacteria can be detrimental and dangerous for us when present in large amounts. Hence, it is crucial to test the raw materials according to the standards of the E-coli test. The raw ingredients are kept in a specially designed plate known as E-coli plate that consists of an indicator that turns all the bacteria blue. It is thus convenient for scientists to reject a lot of raw materials which possess a high amount of bacteria.
- High-Performance Liquid Chromatography - The method of chromatography is a chemical method used for the separation, identification and quantification of each component present in a mixture. We have a highly advanced state-of-the-art computerized tool that examines the purity and effectiveness of ingredients of a sample by the analytical method of high-performance liquid chromatography.
- Gas Chromatography - Gas chromatography is done with a gas chromatography machine that splits the components of a mixture into individual elements by heating it and forming gas. As this gaseous mixture travels up, the individual elements are separated and taken to a detection unit to examine quality further.
- Finished Product Auditing - When the herbal products are manufactured, they are sent for finished product testing. This test includes inspection of the bulk weight, bottle sealing, liquid volume bottle, etc. The products are then compared with the finished product specifications to complete the final rejection and selection process.
These rigorous quality testing methods are used, which uphold our utmost dedication to providing supreme quality herbal products that match the international standards and cater to all the needs of our valuable consumers.
