Acrylamide
Cooked biscuits continue to enjoy a large demand across global populations. As such supply chains can be placed under increasing pressure. This can reduce the quality of produce offered to the consumers. This increases the need for effective testing arrangements across the supply chain.
Acrylamide is formed at high temperatures in starch rich foods such as biscuits. It is a potential carcinogen and, although maximum limits in foods are not legislated, monitoring is still routine in the industry.
The risk to the consumer can be large; as such accurate testing to protect the consumer is required to satisfy both regulators and manufacturers. Proficiency testing can be used to encourage high quality testing across your laboratory. Fapas proficiency tests utilise real food samples to produce directly comparable tests from which to highlight areas of improvement within your current testing arrangement and act upon these quickly.
