There is increasing pressure now placed on pet food manufacturers to focus on the quality of pet feed, in particular those for dogs and cats, in order to meet the changing demands of pet owners. As we all know cats and dogs have different nutritional requirements to people and they need to be fed a specially formulated diet made up of all the right nutrients in the right proportions for healthy body function.
Within this proficiency test your testing ability for a range of food additives and ingredients in this pet food test material can be evaluated.
Pet food plays a vital role in satisfying the nutritional requirements of pets, as such it is imperative consumers have all the correct information they require to make well-informed purchasing decisions. To achieve this it is imperative that accurate testing practises are undertaken.
To maintain these accurate testing practises activities such as proficiency testing should be utilised as part of a wider, well-designed quality assurance programme.
