contamination testing

Contamination testing involves checking products, environments, or samples for unwanted substances such as bacteria, chemicals, or pollutants that could cause harm or spoilage. It typically includes collecting samples and analyzing them in a lab to detect the presence and levels of contaminants. This process helps ensure safety, quality, and compliance with health standards, whether in food production, pharmaceuticals, or manufacturing. Accurate testing identifies potential risks, allowing corrective actions before the contaminated item reaches consumers or the environment.
