Meat & Seafood

Meat and seafood products are highly regulated for safety, nutritional content, and quality parameters such as freshness and fat composition. Accurate and reproducible analysis is essential throughout the production and processing chain to meet both regulatory and consumer expectations.

Velp provides advanced analytical solutions to help manufacturers, laboratories, and research centers assess key quality attributes in raw, processed, and cooked meat and seafood products, as well as for labelling purposes.

We support public and private entities in:

• Protein determination using Kjeldahl and Dumas methods.
• Determination of fat content (Crude and Total Fat).
• Evaluation of fat oxidation for freshness monitoring, new product development, different ingredients testing, and shelf-life studies.
• Study of packaging and comparison between alternative packaging.
• Fish freshness tests (TVBN).
• Sample preparation with a broad range of reliable benchtop laboratory equipment.
