Understanding Lab Accreditation: What ISO 17025 Really Means
When a 7-OH vendor says their products are “lab tested,” the next question should be: by which lab, and are they accredited?
What Is ISO/IEC 17025?
ISO/IEC 17025 is the international standard for testing and calibration laboratories. It certifies that a lab produces accurate, reproducible results using validated methods and trained personnel.
Why It Matters for 7-OH
Without proper accreditation, a lab’s results could be inaccurate — meaning the mg on the label might not match what’s in the product. ISO 17025 ensures that the COA you’re reading is trustworthy.
How to Verify Accreditation
- Find the lab name on the COA
- Look for the accreditation number
- Verify on the accrediting body’s website (e.g., A2LA, ANAB, UKAS)
