Innovations and Technological Advances Creating New Market Opportunities
Leading companies in the food testing services space are advancing the field by developing innovative technologies like high-resolution mass detectors. These instruments enhance the accuracy and efficiency of detecting contaminants in food samples by precisely measuring chemical compound masses at high resolution. They enable identification and quantification of trace pollutants such as pesticides and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) within complex food matrices. For example, in October 2025, Thermo Fisher Scientific launched the Thermo Scientific Orbitrap Exploris EFOX Mass Detector. Designed specifically for environmental and food safety laboratories, this system offers research-grade performance suitable for routine testing. It improves detection of PFAS and other contaminants while simplifying operations through integrated workflows and full-scan data collection, helping labs meet strict regulatory and quality standards more effectively.
