Why test for Glyphosate + AMPA?
Tests for glyphosate and its breakdown product AMPA. Glyphosate is the world's most widely used herbicide — the active ingredient in Roundup — and regulators worldwide set limits on how much may remain in food. Its cancer classification is genuinely disputed: the WHO's IARC calls it a probable human carcinogen, while the U.S. EPA and European EFSA have concluded it's unlikely to pose a cancer risk at expected exposures. Residue levels aren't on the label, and they vary between products.

How The Test Is Performed
The food sample is dissolved in an aqueous solution to extract the analytes, then passed through a machine (LC-MS/MS) that separates and identifies individual chemicals by their molecular weight. This method can detect glyphosate and AMPA at parts-per-billion levels — like finding a single drop in an Olympic swimming pool.
