When you go to the grocery store, you would expect whatever you purchase to be what it claims to be. For example, if you go into the aisle with honey and pick up a jar of honey that claims to be 100% pure honey, then that jar should obviously be filled with pure honey. But this isn’t the case. Many brands currently partake in food adulteration that dilutes their product with corn syrup and other artificial sweeteners. Even worse is if the foods were treated with antibiotics and pesticides because these actually pose a serious risk to your health.

The reason these brands partake in food adulteration is to increase the volume of their products for cheap while increasing their profits. But this means that you’re not actually getting your money’s worth when they claim their honey is “100% pure” for example. The worst part is that chemically the sweeteners like corn syrup are rather similar to the sugars in nectar, meaning it can be difficult to discern just how much of your jars of honey is just sweet syrup.

That’s why Siratech is here to help! We are able to perform a thorough analysis at the molecular level to discover whether or not the honey you’re purchasing is what it claims to be. The process from your end is simple; you send a sample to us, and we apply our technology, knowledge, and experience in order to make a quick and efficient analysis of whether or not there is evidence of food adulteration.

While analyzing honey samples for evidence of food adulteration may be our primary focus, we’re also capable of analyzing other samples sent to us, such as maple syrup and fruit juices. We’re experts in this field; over 20 years of experience under our belt allow us to make quick and accurate reports within 48 hours! If you’re ready to stop buying into products that aren’t what they claim to be, then send a sample to Siratech today!
