Our Competencies

Genetic Engineering (GMO)

The presence of genetically modified plants (referred to as GMOs) has become a reality worldwide. Benefit from our sharp view!

Allergens

Food products can pose a serious health risk for consumers. Regardless of whether gluten, egg or nuts, we see something that you do not see.

Falsification tests

Hedge your products with our purity tests. Important information about wrong labellings or contaminations can be detected and production processes can be optimized. We are happy to support you in carrying out analytical tests.

“NON-GMO”-Monitorings (VLOG)

We will be happy to support you with high quality and anlysisconsulting in compliance to every specification of VLOG (Verband Lebensmittel ohne Gentechnik).

Consulting

Consulting is one of our core strengths and we ensure that you receive the best possible consulting service addressing your specific needs. Make use of our expertise and experience

Contract research and development

New test systems or validation studies? We have the perfect analytical solution for your requests.

Lifeprint high-quality laboratory services: top team, experience and expertise, high-tech methods

A large number of well-established internal control systems and measures ensure the high quality standard of our analytical department. Continuous monitoring and, if possible, optimisation of processes is standard business practice for us.

The rooms are laid out in such a way that the process of sample handling is conducted in a strict “One-Way-System”, thus ensuring that your order can be processed without samples being contaminated.

Regular and successful external adits confirm our outstanding results in international interlaboratory tests and comparison studies in cooperation with the authorities, for instance. In addition, we have also been invited several times to participate in validations studies of the European Commission. We have been accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2005 (DAP-PL 3515.00) since 2002.

We will always subject your measurement results to critical analysis. We do not churn out measurement data en masse, but instead carefully scrutinize and evaluate every one of your results. The combination of all those criteria mentioned makes us stand out from many other laboratories, and that is indeed something we are proud of.
