Food Testing & Authenticity Services
Find out what is actually in your product.
DNA-based adulteration and authenticity testing, probiotic strain confirmation, microbial identification and spoilage investigation — run in our own Hyderabad laboratory and interpreted by research scientists. Accredited compliance panels are coordinated through our partner laboratory network.
Tested in our own laboratory
Where DNA answers what chemistry cannot.
A chemical panel tells you what compounds are present. It cannot tell you whether your “mutton” is mutton, whether your ashwagandha is really ashwagandha, or whether the probiotic strain on your label is the strain in your bottle. That is where we work.
Species & adulteration by DNA
Confirm what a product actually contains — meat and fish substitution, botanical identity of spices and herbal ingredients, and undeclared species in blended products.
Probiotic & culture strain identity
Genome-level confirmation of the strain you claim on your label, by 16S sequencing and whole genome sequencing.
Microbial identification
Identification of spoilage organisms and contaminant isolates by sequencing — so you learn what it is, not just that something grew.
GMO screening
PCR-based screening for common genetically modified elements in food and feed ingredients.
Shelf-life & spoilage investigation
Designed studies to find why a product fails early — and whether the cause is raw material, process or packaging.
Contamination root-cause
Environmental and line swabbing with organism identification, to trace where a recurring contamination actually enters.
Straight answer on compliance testing.
Our in-house molecular tests are provided for research, product development and internal quality monitoring. Manna Biotech is not an accredited or FSSAI-notified testing laboratory, and we will never claim to be.
When you need a statutory or accredited report — FSSAI compliance, pesticide residues, heavy metals, proximate analysis, microbiological counts or export certification — we scope it, manage it and interpret it, but the testing is performed and the report issued by an accredited partner laboratory in its own name. You always know which tests are handled that way.
One partner, not three vendors
Licence, laboratory and product development — under one roof.
Most food businesses juggle a licensing consultant, a testing laboratory and a product development advisor who never speak to each other. Manna Biotech already does all three — so your compliance file, your test data and your formulation work stay joined up.
FSSAI licensing & compliance
Licence applications, product approvals, label review and renewals — our existing regulatory practice.

Why the interpretation matters
A result is not an answer.
Knowing your plate count is high does not tell you whether the problem is your raw material, your process, your water or your packing line — and that is the only thing you actually need to know. Our reports are reviewed by Dr Chathyushya K. B., PhD (Microbiology, ICMR-NIN) and Dr Manne Munikumar, PhD (Bioinformatics), who tell you what the data means and what they would do next.
For manufacturers testing on a regular cycle, we set up an annual testing agreement — an agreed panel, priority turnaround and a named scientist who knows your product history and watches your trend line.

Tell us about your product.
Share the product or ingredient, what you need to establish, and whether the report is for internal use or a regulatory submission — that decides how we route it. If you are unsure which test applies, describe the problem and we will advise.
