We Manufacture Analytical Tracers

For Animal Feed Quality Assurance Since 1961.

Product Applications

Microtracers are analytical tracers used to assure the quality of formula feeds.

All Product Applications

When formulated in a feed product or in a vitamin, mineral or medicated premix, microtracers serve to:

  • Mark the feed product and the feed containing it as proprietary
  • Allow extensive analyses by the feed manufacturer to detect manufacturing errors
  • Document efficacy of mixing as well as adequacy of batch to batch ‘cleanout’

End-to-End Support

For mixer and cross contamination tests:
Micro-Tracers provides advice on study design, data interpretation, and processing of samples, if on-site analysis is not possible.
For tracking ingredients:
Micro-Tracers will provide a free consult to better understand your needs, advise available exclusive tracers, perform stability testing, provide detection apparatus, and assist with developing your testing protocols.
Micro-Tracers provides rotary detectors, mason jar kits, and other materials to support the use of our tracers.
