Reliable and correct results are the main concerns for the customer when choosing a laboratory for vitamin testing. Eurofins gives highest priority to quality - applying a well implemented quality assurance system and validated methods, daily test of quality performance, extensive use of reference materials (CRM, SRM), and participation in international proficiency tests, and - of course - the laboratory is accredited according to ISO 17025. Beside the technical quality, we are very aware of our service quality - only results delivered on time meet the quality target.
In addition, having all vitamin testing activities based at a single locaton makes it possible to focus on R&D work. Development of new and optimisation of existing methods is continuously ongoing in order to meet future requirements for testing and documentation at an international level.
