If you manufacture probiotic Natural Health Products in Canada or the U.S., USP <64> isn’t optional, it’s the standard regulators and your buyers expect to see.
USP <64> Microbiological Examination of Probiotics covers two things every NHP brand needs to defend:
→ Accurate enumeration of the live microorganisms on your label
→ Detection of contaminants that shouldn’t be there
Sounds straightforward. In practice, multi-strain matrices, encapsulation, and prebiotic blends make recovery genuinely tricky, and a method that hasn’t been suitably tested for your specific formulation can quietly under-count your product.
We’ve spent decades developing and validating microbial methods for NHPs at our GMP- and ISO-accredited Edmonton lab. If your label claim depends on the count, the method matters.
Are you ready to confirm what’s really in your product?
