Nutraceutical analysis and adulteration testing of weight management and sexual enhancement products
Manufacturers of nutraceutical products that have the purpose of weight loss or sexual enhancement need to prove that these products are not adulterated so they can be sold on certain online platforms. This is done through product testing completed by an ISO 17025 certified laboratory who can verify whether the products are adulterated with specific compounds.
To help manufacturers and online sellers of these products comply with specification requirements by online retailers, Intertek’s Dietary Supplements and Natural Products Testing lab developed an analysis that tests for potential adulterants in the weight management and sexual enhancement product categories. Our adulteration panels can identify the following compounds, which are specified as adulterants:
| SEXUAL ENHANCEMENT | WEIGHT MANAGEMENT |
| Sildenafil | Sibutramine |
| Tadalafil | Desmethylsibutramine |
| Vardenafi | Phenolphthalein |
| Sulfoaildenafil | Fluoxetine |
| Desmethyl carbodenafil |
Updated specifications of online retailers also include changes to the Certificate of Assurance stipulations. Intertek’s ISO 17025 lab will provide a Certificate of Insurance showing the absence of these adulterants, which is necessary for supplements to remain on consumer platforms that require proof of adulterant-free products. Contact Intertek to get your supplements tested and show your buyers the quality of your products.
