Testing Facilities

 

If an ingredient needs evaluation for inclusion in the database, we recommend the facilities below for different stages of evaluation process. Please note that the laboratories and testing facilities listed below present a sampling of facilities that conduct ingredient evaluation and testing. Ingredient and feed companies must contact testing facilities to make their own arrangements. Listed facilities are neither actively recruiting business nor obligated to conduct any tests.

These facilities are presented by the F3FIN for reference only – Inclusion on the list does not imply that the facilities are in agreement with opinions of or affiliated with F3FIN.

Please note that F3FIN does not advise or support dossier preparation for FDA approval. For FDA approval, ingredient providers should contact the FDA directly with their experimental protocols prior to running the experiment for input.
