Test Description

This proficiency test looks at your testing ability for multiple analytes including; Benzoic Acid, Brix, Citric Acid, Cyclamate, Saccharin, Sorbic Acid, pH within a soft drink. Through this multi-analyte screen your testing abilities can be challenged as within your routine analysis activities.

Soft drinks enjoy vast consumption around the world, leading to increased pressure on producers and, in turn, supply chains. This can lead to manufacturers making increased use of additives to emulate and substitute for natural ingredients. Accurate testing should be employed to verify any claims made by labels, such as no food additives or similar.

To ensure the effective testing required to highlight unscrupulous manufacturers or misleading labelling claims well-designed quality assurance programmes should be employed. Fapas proficiency tests should be used to form the benchmark of these quality assurance activities, to ensure effective testing abilities are maintained.

Fapas proficiency tests make use of real food matrices to ensure any outcomes are relevant and immediately comparable to your routine analysis activities. This maintains the high quality testing standards your customers continue to enjoy.
