This quality control material provides the opportunity to carry out a comprehensive fatty acid profile including individual fatty acids, on a straightforward single type of oil that is very popular and frequently tested in laboratories.
Olive oil has extensive research into its health benefits, with a larger proportion of monounsaturated fatty acids compared to other substitutes. As such it is in large demand with consumers. However, due to its popularity it can be prone to fraud and adulteration.
Consequently, it is important to confirm that only high quality testing methods are used to ensure your customers enjoy credible, repeatable test results.
Fat is an essential part of the human diet, supplying nutritional components that the body needs in order to function. Too much fat in the diet, especially of nutritionally undesirable forms, can give rise to health problems. Hence, fat is subject to labelling requirements on food products and analyses are targeted towards this compliance.
Vegetable-based oils are used within a wide range of cooking processes and as such can be consumed in a wide range of forms. This makes vegetable and most other oils by extension subject to rigorous regulations, to provide high quality produce to the consumer and negate any food adulteration risks from this potentially expensive product.
Through the use of real food matrices, Fapas quality control materials can be immediately comparable to your routine analysis. This allows you to maintain your testing ability throughout the year, between ongoing Fapas proficiency testing activities. Through these efforts your high quality testing is maintained and can therefore satisfy your customers and regulators.
