Dietary Supplement Testing FAQs

What is dietary supplement testing? Dietary supplement testing verifies dietary supplement products' identity, purity, strength, and composition. Because dietary supplements do not undergo the same rigorous pre-market approval process as prescription or over-the-counter drugs, testing plays a crucial role in ensuring their quality and safety for consumers.

Why is third-party supplement testing important? Third-party supplement testing is vital because it provides independent and unbiased verification of product quality. Furthermore, these organizations often employ scientific expertise and rigorous methodologies, offering higher assurance.

How do I know if my supplements meet FDA regulations? In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the manufacturing, packaging, storing, and labeling of dietary supplements under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and its subsequent amending statutes, including the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act.
 
  • Products are manufactured in a facility that is compliant with the FDA's Current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations (cGMPs, 21 CFR 111/117 or equivalent).
  • Products do not contain contaminants that may pose a human health or regulatory concern.
  • Products contain the ingredients claimed on the product label
  • Products do not contain undeclared active pharmaceutical ingredients
  • Products are labeled according to guidelines set forth by the FDA and do not contain illegal or disease claims
Do you test supplements for heavy metals and contaminants? Absolutely. We are experts in heavy metal and contaminant testing for dietary supplements. Furthermore, we offer a 360° solution, including full microbiology and chemistry analysis, sensory and research support, consultancy, auditing/training, and digital quality tools. Contact our sales team to learn more!

Can you test the potency and dosage of active ingredients at Mérieux NutriSciences supplement testing lab facilities? You've come to the right place.

Furthermore, we offer a 360° solution, including full microbiology and chemistry analysis, sensory and research support, consultancy, auditing/training, and digital quality tools.

How long does it take to test supplements? The time required for supplement testing varies depending on the specific analyses needed. However, at Meriuex Nutrisciences, we pride ourselves on offering the most competitive turnaround times in the dietary supplement industry. While the complexity of the test (identity, purity, potency, etc.) naturally influences the duration, we've optimized our processes to deliver efficient and reliable results, helping you swiftly get your quality products to market.
