[03] What these numbers mean
Plain-language notes on the panel. These describe what each test measures — they are not health claims.
Identity & assay
Identity (infrared spectrum and specific rotation) confirms the material is sucralose and nothing else. Assay measures how much of the powder is sucralose — the USP/FCC specification is 98.0–102.0% on an anhydrous basis. A passing assay means the jar contains pure sucralose, not a diluted blend.
Heavy metals (Pb, As, Cd, Hg)
Lead, arsenic, cadmium, and mercury are measured by ICP-MS, an instrument sensitive to fractions of a part per million. Results reported as "< LOD" mean the metal was below the instrument's limit of detection. Compendial limits for sucralose are ≤ 1.0 mg/kg lead, ≤ 3.0 mg/kg arsenic.
Sucralose-6-acetate (S6A)
Sucralose-6-acetate is a process-related impurity from sucralose manufacturing. Compendial specifications limit individual related substances to ≤ 0.1%. We screen every lot for it specifically and publish the numeric result, including the detection limit of the method used.
Microbiology
Total plate count and yeast & mold counts measure overall microbial load (reported in colony-forming units per gram); E. coli and Salmonella are tested for outright absence in a 10 g and 25 g sample respectively. These are the standard USP <61>/<62> tests applied to food ingredients.
Water & residue on ignition
Karl Fischer water content (spec ≤ 2.0%) verifies the powder is dry, which matters for stability and accurate dosing by weight. Residue on ignition (spec ≤ 0.7%) measures inorganic material left after combustion — effectively a check for mineral contamination.
Reading "<" results
A result like "< 0.05 mg/kg" means the analyte was not detected down to that concentration — the smallest amount the method can reliably measure. It is the most precise statement a lab can make about absence.
