Test Description

This blank material is ideal to ensure effective calibration curves are created. This can ensure only high quality test results are found, and can be used to compare and contrast with the adjoining quality control material for pesticide residues in cucumber puree to ensure your testing ability is fit for purpose across a range of testing environments throughout the year.

Pesticides are used extensively across a range of crops, including fruits and vegetables such as cucumbers. These are used with the goal of maintaining high quality produce by controlling disease and pest impacts on crops. Through good farming practices levels of pesticide residues are usually low and under safe levels. Yet as farmers come under increasing pressure to satisfy growing demand for produce, poor farming practices may increase levels of pesticide residues exposed to consumers. As a result there is a real requirement to ensure your testing measures are fit for purpose, to ensure only high quality foodstuffs are offered to consumers.

Cucumbers are widely consumed across the globe. Offering a range of potential benefits, the demand for this foodstuff can put pressure on the global supply chain, placing reliance on short term farming practices such as increased pesticide usage. The range of foodstuffs, including processed foods, which make use of cucumber as an ingredient continues to grow, further adding to the growing demand.

Through the use of blank materials within your ongoing quality control efforts the ease of comparison within your calibration curve is greatly improved. This can allow you to focus on the testing process itself, from which to highlight any areas of improvement which may be required.
