The analytical characterization of foods, ingredients and materials used in production processes is an essential step to verify the suitability of the product and consistency with the technical specifications required by the supply chain.

The activities include chemical, microbiological and performance evaluations conducted on food matrices, raw materials, packaging materials and process surfaces, using validated methods and standardized operating procedures, aimed at ensuring precision, accuracy and reproducibility of data.

The results obtained support the control of production hygiene, the definition of stability and conservation conditions, the management of quality plans and the verification of the functional characteristics of the materials used in the transformation processes.

The adoption of advanced instrumental techniques and rigorous protocols makes it possible to generate reliable and traceable data, providing technical support to the monitoring, evaluation and control activities carried out by operators in the food supply chain.
