Qualitative and/or Quantitative test. Two test materials will be provided. Results will be grouped and assessed according to the brand of ELISA kit used. Thus limited data may preclude assessment of small categories.
Within this proficiency test, your ability to highlight cashew nuts and cashew nut protein within this test material will be evaluated. Cashew nuts are known as a potential allergen, and as such, can lead to potentially harmful allergic reactions. To mitigate this risk, effective quality control measures should be used to ensure high-quality testing that is able to cope with the challenges presented within routine testing activities.
Chocolate has a range of well documented apparent health advantages, as well as being a popular sweet treat. As such its global consumption continues to increase around the globe, leading to more intense cocoa farming, leading to an increased risk of contamination and low quality produce, as growers look to maximise their crop yields.
Fapas utilise real food matrices within this proficiency test. This provides directly comparable results in an as true to life test as possible. By achieving these comparable results, you can implement wide-ranging and critical improvements to your testing ability quickly and with clarity, therefore passing on high-quality testing standards to your customers.
It is important that consumers with food allergies or intolerances can make informed choices when choosing products; by taking part in this test you are ensuring an independent verification of your testing procedures to comply with regulation. Results will be grouped and assessed according to the brand of ELISA kit used. Thus, limited data may preclude assessment of small categories.
