ANALAB is a premier state-of-the-art laboratory and research facility operated by an innovative, pioneering team of professional chemists and microbiologists who interpret analytical data and provide solutions through testing.

Through the Years...

• 1972 – ANALAB was established to test feedstuff samples to personalize livestock feeding rations.
• 1981 – A state-of-the-art facility was built to ensure quality controlled analyses.
• 1993 – ANALAB was the first and only laboratory in the world to have continuously maintained live artificial rumens for critical analyses, such as IVDMD. Those rumens are still viable today.
• 2008 – ANALAB's facilities were completely renovated which enabled us to expand our research capabilities.

Our Goal

Today, our professional staff is seeking answers to gain understanding in these areas:

• Unraveling the complex interaction of minerals. What is the relationship of each mineral to another and how does this interaction affect energy and protein utilization?
• Utilizing molecular technology to determine the most effective bacteria and enzymes in forage fermentation, preservation and Direct Fed Microbial (DFM) feed additives.
• Optimizing feed efficiency for a cleaner environment via reducing animal waste.
• Determining impact of proportions and types of end products of fermentations on absorption and efficient utilization of nutrients.

Experience & Quality Control

• Annually, more than 1 Million analyses are completed by ANALAB professionals utilizing standard wet chemical procedures and/or instrumentation analyses of 70,000 feedstuff samples worldwide.
• ANALAB develops and continually cross-checks and updates with standard chemical procedures for ANALAB's NIR calibration set to reflect ever-changing genetics and environmental growing conditions.
• Impressive 24-hour turnaround for 90% of feedstuff samples so you receive analyses (including fiber content and digestibility) in a timely fashion that makes results useful!
• Since 1972, ANALAB has maintained active quality testing programs that monitor daily operations. Clients are assured official standard tests are performed accurately, promptly and economically.
