Dear American Seed Trade Association members –

Iowa State University Grain Quality Lab provides rapid composition tests for corn, soybeans and wheat. The lab also offers test weight and seed weight/count measurements as well as amino acid profiles done in cooperation with University of Missouri. Our seed breeder clients have found value in the ability to know the nutrient composition of their germplasm to make decisions for future trials.

The Grain Quality Lab also offers calibration and standardization services if you have your own near infrared (NIR) analyzers. Please call us for a quote for these services.

Attached please find the sample analysis form for you to use when submitting samples and a price list for our services. If you have any questions about our services, billing, or how to send samples, please don’t hesitate to call or email. Four people to contact are listed on the Sample Analysis Form and my contact information is in the signature below.

Thank you so much for considering the ISU Grain Quality Lab for your seed composition tests. We know you have choices in whom to trust with data for your breeding program. We hope that you will keep us in mind.
