Mercury & Methyl Mercury Testing –
Ensuring Toxic Metal Safety in Food
Mercury and its organic form, methyl mercury, are highly toxic heavy metals that can contaminate food through water, soil, and environmental exposure—especially in fish, seafood, grains, and other agricultural products. Long-term consumption can lead to serious neurological and developmental health risks, making regulatory compliance essential. At SIMA LABS, we conduct accurate testing for both elemental mercury and methyl mercury in food and agricultural products to ensure they meet stringent safety standards laid out by FSSAI, Codex, EU, and US FDA. Our testing helps manufacturers, exporters, and food processors demonstrate product safety, avoid rejections, and maintain global market credibility.Mercury and its organic form, methyl mercury, are highly toxic heavy metals that can contaminate food through water, soil, and environmental exposure—especially in fish, seafood, grains, and other agricultural products.
