Our customer, who was developing a new food supplement product, contacted QIB Extra to help determine the impact of a product on human serum levels of key phytochemicals.
 
Serum samples were collected during a human study, sent to QIB Extra and analysed by experts at Quadram Institute Bioscience for a particular range of phytochemicals and other biomarkers. Quadram Institute Bioscience has a large body of research expertise in the area of establishing how individuals vary in their ability to absorb, metabolise and extract health benefits from polyphenols. QIB Extra provided an expert interpretation of the results in the form of a final report which demonstrated that the product did have an effect on levels of phytochemicals in the serum samples tested.
