Test Description

Ethylene oxide gas has disinfectant properties against bacteria, fungi and viruses. Ethylene oxide, formerly used as a pesticide in the EU, is no longer approved for use as a pesticide in the EU under Regulation (EC) 1107/2009 and is classified as a carcinogen and mutagen category 1B in accordance with EU legislation.  Ethylene oxide is still used by some countries for fumigation before export. Residues of ethylene oxide in food can lead to the formation of another toxic compound: 2‑chloroethanol.

Sesame seeds are widely used ingredients in processed foods;FAPAS offers a quality control material for ethylene oxide and 2‑chloroethanol in sesame seeds.

Through Fapas quality control materials your testing ability can be safeguarded to highlight a range of mycotoxins both accurately and in a timely fashion. Fapas quality control materials can be used to standardise your testing practices, through effective staff training applications as well as being a useful instrumentation verification tool to remove any unconscious bias from your testing apparatus.
