Quality Control
Commitment to Quality
Our commitment to quality is exemplified by our in-house, full-service, quality control lab, assuring Cosmic Nutracos’s excellence in four areas~ raw materials, testing, process and R & D.
Certification
We hold kosher certification and GMP certification. We have addressed the incoming federal GMPs by reviewing and editing all organizational documents and SOPs to comply with the proposed regulations and welcomed third party review and audit to demonstrate our compliance.
Raw Materials
Quality begins with carefully selected and analyzed raw materials. We pre-qualify all of our raw materials suppliers ~ investigating and auditing their facilities, processes, and standards. With our many years of experience in the industry, we have long-term relationships with the best growers and manufacturers. Every ingredient must have a certificate of analysis, is quarantined upon arrival at our facilities, and undergoes rigorous inspection before use.
Testing
We have state-of-the-art equipment, and our in-house testing capabilities include ~
• Raw material identification by IR spectroscopy
• Microbiological screening for TPC, Coliform, E.coli, Enterobacteriase,Yeast, Mold
• Assay verification by High Performance Liquid Chromotography (HPLC) and UV-Vis spectroscopy
• Testing for tablet disintegration, friability, shelf-life stability, fill-weight, and hardness
• Botanical identification by TLC. (added during 2007) This ensures you of finished product potency and quality.Third party labs are currently used for pesticide and heavy metals analysis and for confirmation of critical or questionable results.
• Quality Control and Assurance
Process
COSMIC NUTRACOS’s stringent quality control process is Kosher-certified and closely monitors production from raw materials to finished product. Our Double cone blender is renowned for blending materials very uniformly; our follow-up analysis verifies that potency is accurate, tablet-to-tablet, and capsule-to-capsule. Products are tested and inspected at intervals during manufacture, and our large inspection tables enable automated visual inspection of every finished capsule and tablet,
with accuracy confirmed during a final analysis by the Quality Control Lab.
