Test Description

Animal feed affects a large range of foodstuffs due to its key position within the supply chain, as such effective testing is key to provide accurate results to protect consumers and manufacturers from low quality products.

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been manufactured and used in a variety of industries around the globe. These chemicals are very persistent in the environment – meaning they don’t break down and can accumulate over time. Furthermore, there is also evidence that exposure to PFAS can lead to adverse human health effects. It is therefore important that accurate measurement of these chemicals are carried out to minimise the risk to consumer health.

Proficiency testing activities from Fapas are vital to ensure only high quality test abilities are utilised within your testing arrangement. Through the use of challenging reference materials direct comparisons can be made with your routine analysis activities to provide the clear, concise improvements to ensure only high quality test results are offered to customers, and regulators alike.
