Main risks and needs

Microbiological contamination

Presence of pathogenic microorganisms in water, food, environments and products, with a direct impact on human health. This is one of the most critical and transversal risks, requiring regular monitoring, early detection and systematic control.

Consumer and user safety

Risk associated with exposure of customers, patients, workers or vulnerable populations to physical, chemical or microbiological agents. The protection of people is a central requirement in all sectors of activity.

Reputational and brand risk

Risk of damage to the image and brand confidence resulting from incidents, non-conformities or control failures. In many sectors, the reputational impact may be greater than the operational impact.

Traceability, evidence and decision making

Risk of inappropriate decisions due to lack of reliable data, analytical history or technical evidence. Traceability and quality of information are fundamental to risk management and informed decision making.

Types of analyses performed

Laboratory tests that detect, identify and quantify microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, yeasts, parasites and others) to evaluate the safety and quality of products and environments.

They consist of carrying out laboratory tests aimed at characterizing the composition, structure and physical and chemical properties of a sample, by measuring specific parameters and evaluating the presence of contaminants allowing to verify its quality, safety and legal compliance.
