  The laboratory where essential oil are analysed
 

 

The creation of the laboratory in 2002 was to determine the quality of the essential oils.

Equipped with a gas chromatograph coupled with a mass spectrograph ( GC / MS) and a FID chromatograph, configured for the detection of essential oils, we are able to analyze all your E.O.

Since 2006, we have been able to analyse pesticides in essential oils using a gas chromatograph, with a XSD and FPD detectors .

We can also make the following physico-chemical analyses according to the AFNOR standards and the European Pharmacopoeia :

  • Relative density at 15 and 20 °C
  • Refractive index
  • Optical rotation
  • Flash point
  • Miscibility in ethanol


These analyses are made within 48 hours after reception of the sample and confidentiality is guaranteed. The results are sent by e-mail and post.

Equipment:

  • Chromatograph HP 5890 coupled to a mass spectrograph HP 5970.


  • Chromatograph HP 5890, equipped with a FID detector


  • Chromatograph HP 6890, equipped with a XSD and FPD détectors


  • Universal Refractometer Abbe RF 490


  • Polarimeter Euromex PO 400


  • Electronic Densimeter Mettler Toledo


  • Flash Point Measuring Apparatus : Setaflash


  • Precision Weghing Balance Mettler Toledo
