Pet Food and Pet Products

Pet food and pet product testing is done to ensure quality and safety of a product.  An analysis may also be done to support marketing claims of a guarantee.  If your pet food product is under the label of 'formulated to meet' then an analysis must be done to make sure the product does meet that standard.   

Pet food and product testing is done to check for nutrients, constituents and integrity of a product.  Tests can be done to check for crude fat, ash, moisture, Omega-3 fatty acid, byproducts, calorie content, safety, palatibility, and more.
