Feed microscopy can be divided into two major types qualitative and quantitative. ***** Qualitative microscopy is the identification and evaluation of ingredients and foreign materials, alone or in mixtures, via either surface features or cellular characteristics. Quantitative microscopy is the subjective, proportioned measurement of ingredients in finished feeds or of contaminants and adulterants in ingredients, and involves examinations by both stereo- and compound microscopes.

Feed manufactures follow regulations governed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. FDA is responsible for the regulation of feed and implementation of policies through the state government and the Association of American Feed Control Officials. Numerous feed certification programs such as the American Feed Industry Association’s Safe Feed/Safe Food Certification Program are also available for additional compliance and regulation. *****
