Sandalwood Oil Testing Labs
Testing essential oils is crucial to ensure their purity, quality, and therapeutic effectiveness. Here are some standard methods used in essential oil testing:
Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS): This is the most common method. It helps identify the individual components of the oil by vaporizing it and analyzing the components based on their mass and charge.
Organoleptic Testing: This involves using human senses (smell, taste, sight) to evaluate the oil’s quality. Experienced testers can often detect impurities or adulterations.
Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR): This technique measures how the oil absorbs infrared light, providing a unique spectral fingerprint that can be used to identify and verify the oil’s composition.
Chirality Testing: This checks the molecular structure of the oil to ensure it matches the natural form, as synthetic versions often have different structures.
Isotopic Analysis: This method examines the isotopic ratios in the oil, which can help determine its geographical origin and detect synthetic additives.
