Specialists in PCR Testing, Food Microbiology, Allergens and Speciation
 
 

 Welcome from Outsource Laboratory Ltd

We are a full-service PCR testing facility specializing in Food testing, Microbiological, Speciation, Allergens, GMO, and Viral Pathogens. 

Our mission is to satisfy all of your testing needs in an efficient and accurate manner . Turnover of results upon receipt is 24 hours, allowing, in many cases, positive release. 

From the first contact  to the analysis request and beyond, we are always there if you need advice.

 This is testing using the unique finger print of DNA and RNA by the use of the most state of the art polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology.

We have now extended our services to include traditional plate microbiology, the more advance chromogenic dry plates, lateral flow tests, ELISA. Further more we have introduced other parameters affecting shelf life such as salt, pH, water activity and moisture content. We can undertake product analysis, shelflife analysis, water testing and swab analysis.

PCR is a technology that is based on DNA technology that is approximately 30 years old. It has advanced rapidly, becoming more specific and accurate. If you can guarantee customer safety through the supply chain from raw material through to finished retail product, customer confidence will be hugely elevated and your brand secure as the preferred safest product. The authorities have the confidence of a certificate of analysis and not  a certificate of conformance, whether that be UK or international customers requiring COA for export product. No recalls or withdrawals but guarantees.  But not let us forget the efficiency and the cost saving benefits your business could benefit from - one of our customers used to have a 3 week stock holding level until results were received - we have reduced this to 2 days using PCR technology. The electricity used for the storage has been reduced by a 1/3 - great move towards Net Zero. 


Our laboratory can provide you with your full testing requirements with full customer service and rapid results turnaround. Nutritional analysis is also avgailable by subcontracting.
