Allergen testing - Guarantee of food safety
Eurofins, a leading supplier of analytical services, offers comprehensive testing of allergens in food products. Our advanced laboratory methods make it possible to precisely identify and quantify potentially allergenic substances, supporting manufacturers in ensuring consumer safety and compliance with applicable regulations.
The range of tests covers a wide spectrum of allergens, including:
- Gluten and gluten cereal proteins
- Milk components (casein, lactose)
- Nuts and seeds (walnuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, sesame, mustard)
- Products of animal origin (fish, crustaceans, molluscs, eggs)
- Legumes and vegetables (soybeans, celery)

According to food experts, the number of food allergies has increased significantly over the past few years. Some food-related allergies have a significant impact on quality of life, and can be life-threatening in the event of anaphylactic shock.
Food intolerances (e.g. gluten, lactose) or visceral disease are becoming one of the most common genetic diseases in Europe.
