Aflatoxins are a group of mycotoxins which are produced by specific Aspergillus species of fungi. Through effective testing activities, aflatoxins in foodstuffs can be highlighted and therefore controlled across a range of foodstuffs including nuts, and by extension pistachios.
Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi on agricultural commodities in the field or during storage. It is estimated at 25% of the world's food crops are affected, resulting in large commercial losses. Mycotoxins can cause serious health problems, including some being suspected carcinogens, and so are tightly regulated across the world. Mycotoxin contamination is the largest cause of rapid alerts raised against imported food products.
Due to the high levels of aflatoxins which can be found internationally in commercially available nut-based foodstuffs, Fapas includes this almond based test material. The test material is provided in a slurry format, which is a blend of both water and milled almonds.
Quality control materials from Fapas make use of real food matrices, from which to ensure direct comparisons can be made with your current routine analysis activities. This can ensure any areas of improvement are relevant and concise to action in an efficient way, to pass directly to your customers and regulators alike. These are invaluable to ensure your testing ability is competitive within a saturated business environment.
