Nature’s Way Adopts Innovative Solutions To Optimize Dietary Supplement Quality Control

 

Nature’s Way, a leading manufacturer of dietary supplements, experienced record growth within the past five years, significantly increasing the volume of quality control testing. The company produces over 900 SKUs, utilizing more than 600 different raw materials, including challenging botanical ingredients. The complexity of testing these materials is heightened by the variety of dosage forms and the presence of inhibitory and antimicrobial properties in the matrices. 

bioMérieux collaborated with Nature’s Way to create a custom matrix validation program, utilizing expertise from both companies’ Scientific Affairs and Research & Development teams. 

By adopting TEMPO® and GENE-UP® NUTRAPLEX™ PRO, Nature’s Way is combating the challenges posed by traditional microbial testing methods and reducing its cost per sample by ~40%.
