The Certificate of Analysis is the "quality ID card" for all plant extract transactions. But for procurement officers, faced with a COA containing

dozens of data points, how can one quickly grasp the essentials to judge the supplier's professionalism and the raw material's reliability?

First, the content of core active ingredients (like tea polyphenols, EGCG) must be clearly marked and match the specification sheet. Second,

safety indicators must not be overlooked: Heavy metals (lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury) and Pesticide residues (e.g., residues of various

common pesticides) must comply with the regulatory limits of the target market.

A responsible COA should also include Microorganism indicators (total plate count, mold & yeast, E. coli, etc.) to prove good production

hygiene. More importantly, this report should be issued by an internationally recognized third-party testing agency (like SGS, Eurofins) to

ensure its impartiality and authority. Data transparency is the first step in building supply chain trust.

Blue Eyes Biotech firmly believes that trust is built on indisputable evidence. We provide a detailed, batch-traceable COA for every batch of

green tea extract shipped. This report not only clearly lists specific values for all key ingredients and safety indicators but also includes

descriptions of testing methods. We encourage clients to verify our data and are willing to provide more original analysis chromatograms

upon request. For us, providing authentic, comprehensive quality documentation is the foundation of cooperation with global professional

buyers. To request samples and a complete COA, please visit www.blueeyes-bio.com.
