Food Engineering/Manufacturing - marketing salad dressing/sample analyzed?


Expert: J. Peter Clark - 10/29/2009

Question
Dear Sir,

In the case of wanting to market a salad dressing, in order to have a nutritional label processed, where would one find a facility to have a sample analyzed?

Thankyou,
Kari

Answer
Nutritional labels can be based on analysis or calculation from recipe, using standard tables. Your state college of agriculture probably has a department of food science who will have people who can help. They will either do the calculation or analysis themselves, maybe for a fee, or send you to labs or consultants. There are many - depends on your location.
