Testing of all product samples referenced in this document was arranged through Midwest Laboratories in Omaha, NE. Midwest Labs has serving the agricultural, industrial, environmental, and sampling needs of the United States and Canada for over 30 years. Government agencies, such as the USFDA and USDA and official laboratory inspection teams regularly audit them to verify accuracy and quality of their procedures. An extensive list of their qualifications and certifications is provided on their website. Midwest’s staff consists of over 100 scientists, lab technicians, clerical assistants, and administrative officers, housed in over 80,000 square feet of laboratory and support area. Pet food testing Rehabilitators who wish to have any food products tested may contact certified independent laboratories. While such facilities may be found on the internet, there are benefits from asking nutritionists, food scientists and others about specific facilities. Since services, certifications, qualifications, experience, and prices vary, it is worthwhile to consider all of these factors rather than just selecting a lab that is nearby or less expensive. Those interested in having tests conducted by Midwest Laboratories should call Sue Ann Seitz (Client Service Representative) at 402-334-7770 or email her at sueann@midwestlabs.com to establish an account. A sample of about 2 cups is required for powdered milk replacer products. Midwest will provide reduced cost UPS labels upon request for shipping. Once received, testing generally takes about 3-5 days with results provided quickly via email and later by U.S. mail. A variety of ingredient and microbiology testing is available, as listed on their website at www.midwestlabs.com. Contact Midwest for current pricing. |
