Gluten is a group of proteins naturally found in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. For individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance, the consumption of gluten can lead to serious health issues. Therefore, the accuracy of product labels and the reliability of ingredient analyses are critically important for consumer safety.
Today, gluten presence is carefully monitored not only in food products, but also in cosmetic and personal care products. Mislabeling or incomplete ingredient declarations can trigger immune responses and long-term health complications in people with celiac disease. As a result, gluten analysis has become a key part of product safety assurance processes. Products labeled as "gluten-free" must be supported by scientifically valid testing to verify the claim.
A gluten test is a laboratory analysis conducted to determine whether a product contains gluten. These tests also help evaluate the risk of cross-contamination during the manufacturing or packaging stages.
Gluten testing is typically applied to the following product groups:
Food products (baked goods, snacks, dietary supplements)
Cosmetics and personal care products (lip care items, toothpaste, shampoo, lotion, etc.)
Baby products
The Importance of Gluten Testing
In individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease, gluten intake can lead to a wide range of health problems—from digestive issues to autoimmune damage. Gluten testing plays a crucial role in verifying the safety of products, especially those labeled as “gluten-free.”
In the European Union and Turkey, regulations permit the use of the "gluten-free" claim only if specific criteria are met. This compliance must be verified through authorized laboratory testing. Gluten test results serve to certify regulatory compliance for labeling and help businesses prepare for audits and inspections.
Consumer groups—especially those with celiac disease—rely heavily on accurate ingredient information and test results when choosing products. Providing gluten analysis results strengthens brand communication based on transparency and trust.
Cosming's Gluten Testing Process
Samples are submitted following a pre-planned coordination process. Each sample is coded according to lab protocols and delivered to the relevant lab unit under sterile and controlled conditions.
Testing for gluten content is performed using standardized analytical methods. The data is then directly transferred to the reporting team.
Test results are evaluated by expert staff and compiled into a report with technical commentary. Upon request, technical support and explanatory guidance regarding the results are also provided.
