- Testing Standard: AL/SOP/6.4/G-010
Key Findings:
-
Heavy Metals: All tested metals (Lead, Arsenic, Cadmium, Mercury) were within safe limits.
Trace amounts of certain heavy metals can sometimes be detected in agricultural products because elements such as lead, arsenic, and cadmium can occur naturally in soil. Ginger is a rhizome that grows in close contact with the soil, and plants can naturally absorb very small amounts of these elements from the soil as they grow. Detectable trace levels therefore do not by themselves indicate that anything was added to the product or that the product was contaminated during processing.
At Spice Profile, we independently test our spices for heavy metals so that these levels can be measured and monitored. For the Organic Ginger lot tested in this report, arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury were all tested and were within the specifications stated by the laboratory. Independent testing is an important part of our quality and sourcing process, helping us verify the levels present in our spices rather than making assumptions about them.
- Pesticides & Insecticides: No detectable levels found.
- ETO (Ethylene Oxide) & 2-Chloroethanol: Below the quantification limit (BLQ < 0.01 mg/kg).
- Overall Conclusion: The batch meets all safety and quality standards for organic certification.

Understanding Your Report - Key Terms
Here’s a quick guide to help you understand the lab report:
🔹 BLQ (Below Limit of Quantification): The substance was tested, but its quantity is too low to be detected or measured within the test’s range.
🔹 QL (Quantification Limit): The lowest level at which a substance can be reliably detected and quantified.
🔹 Heavy Metals: These include Lead (Pb), Arsenic (As), Cadmium (Cd), and Mercury (Hg), which must be within safe limits.
🔹 Pesticide Residues: Organic spices should be free from synthetic pesticide contamination.
🔹 ETO (Ethylene Oxide): A sterilizing agent that must not exceed safe levels in organic products.
