Quality & testing
How every batch of Glycotide is tested
Glycotide is produced in an FDA-registered facility in the United States that follows current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP). Quality is the process; the verification page shows the result for the current lot.
Where it is made
Manufacturing takes place in an FDA-registered, cGMP-certified facility. cGMP covers everything from equipment sanitation and staff training to documentation and finished-product checks, so each run meets the same standard.
What we test on every lot
- Identity — confirming each botanical and nutrient is what the label says, by HPLC and related methods.
- Potency — verifying the blend meets its target concentration.
- Heavy metals — screening for lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury by ICP-MS, held below 0.5 ppm.
- Microbials — screening against USP limits for total counts, yeast, mold, and pathogens.
- Allergens — confirming the non-GMO, vegetarian, dairy-free, gluten-free profile.
Independent oversight
Testing is performed by Brindley Reference Sciences, LLC, an independent laboratory operating to ISO/IEC 17025 methods. Independence matters: a lab with no stake in the result has no reason to look the other way. Each lot receives a certificate of analysis, referenced on the verification page.
Sourcing
Ingredients are selected from vetted suppliers with documentation for origin and purity. If a raw material cannot be traced and tested, it is not used. That discipline is why we can sell through a single authorized channel with confidence.
