Test Description

Consumption of trans-fats in large quantities can have a detrimental effect on human health, by promoting high levels of cholesterol in the body, which has well documented health risks associated. Saturated fats can be seen as more of a risk by some due to the higher levels we consume on a regular basis compared to trans-fats. Fats as a whole are vital for a healthy lifestyle when consumed in moderation. It is therefore important for consumers to have effective information about the quantities of fats within their foodstuffs.

Accurate testing is required to achieve these trustworthy results. To maintain this over time effective quality control processes must be utilised to provide a track record of high quality testing to satisfy regulators and customers that your testing arrangement can provide the testing ability required. Proficiency tests form the foundation for these effective quality control processes. By providing a benchmark from which to improve, areas where your laboratory may be falling behind, such as within fatty acids in mixed fat spread, can be addressed to provide all round high quality testing.

Fapas proficiency tests utilise real food matrices, from which to draw effective and comparable results to inform your quality control processes. Our expertise is utilised to provide statistically robust data from which to evaluate your performance within this proficiency test.
