Quality control

The raw materials that are used in the PADMA formulas meet the strict quality requirements of the authorities. These are established precisely for each individual plant (e.g. through monographs in the pharmacopoeias). Careful quality control in the PADMA laboratory ensures that only high-grade plant parts are used.

In this connection, particular importance is attached to the purity of the herbal substances used. Residues of pesticides, heavy metals or moulds make them unusable for the manufacturing process. Product-specific quality aspects such as content of important constituents, fingerprints or physical parameters are naturally also checked. Besides the chemical-analytical methods, the PADMA quality control specialists can also count on their own sense of taste and smell. The human sensory organs constitute a highly sensitive instrumentarium and represent an optimal complement to the technical test methods.
