IFOS: independent testing you can check
MarineOmega has a product listing in the International Fish Oil Standards (IFOS™) programme. IFOS tests omega-3 products for declared active ingredient content, selected contaminants and oxidation or stability. This gives buyers access to testing information beyond the product description.
You can view MarineOmega’s IFOS listing and select a batch or lot to see its report. Match the batch or lot number on your own pack to an available report before drawing conclusions about that specific pack. The listing should not be interpreted as a guarantee of a particular rating or result for every batch.
