Naturally Occurring Toxic Substances –
Detecting Hidden Hazards in Food

Naturally occurring toxic substances (NOTS) such as mycotoxins, cyanogenic glycosides, lectins, solanine, oxalates, and others can be present in a variety of plant-based and agricultural products. Though naturally formed, these compounds pose serious health risks when consumed above permissible limits. At SIMA LABS, we offer comprehensive testing to identify and quantify these toxins in food, feed, spices, herbs, pulses, vegetables, and processed products. Our testing supports food safety, regulatory compliance, and consumer protection—especially important for exporters and food brands targeting global markets.
