100% TESTING OF INGREDIENTS AND PRODUCTS

When you get a shipment from Dr. Green Mom® you can be certain that what’s on the label is what’s inside! We test 100% of the ingredients that come in to our manufacture facility. Then we test each formulation and finished product before we ship it to ensure that it remains pure, potent, and stable. Our manufacturer’s scientists use more than a dozen different tests to evaluate ingredients and products, including:

• FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) – helps identify chemicals or compounds.
• GC (gas chromatography) – measures chemical spectrum and potency, and is often used for testing essential oils.
• HP-TLC (high performance thin layer chromatography) – identifies the genus and species of a plant.
• HPLC (higher potency layer chromatography) – isolates chemical markers to measure the potency of a plant compound, vitamin or mineral.
• ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) – quantifies the amount of heavy metal in a raw material or product.
• Microbiological testing – shows the count of aerobic bacteria, yeast, mold, e-coli, staph, and salmonella in raw and finished goods.
• Organoleptics – uses taste, color, and smell as quality markers in raw materials and finished goods.
• Titration – measures vitamin or mineral potency.
• UV-VIS (ultraviolet visible spectroscopy) – measures the amount of a specific compound in a plant.
• Macroscopy –identifies the genus and species of a whole plant.
• Microscopy – helps identify the genus and species of whole botanicals by looking at cell structure.
