Furan, 2-Methylfuran, 3-Methylfuran
If appropriate, additional furans to be reported
Dietary exposure to furan and its methyl analogues such as 2-methyl furan and 3-methyl furan is a potential human health concern and advice is that foodstuffs are monitored to highlight any potentially unsafe levels. Additionally, risk management strategies are put in place to avoid production of these process contaminants taking place and to bring about the principle for any contaminant levels to be as low as reasonably achievable.
Furan formation has been detected in many foods including grains and grain‑based products. Such products can contribute to intake of furans for toddlers. Fapas offers this proficiency test for furans in a baby food (cereal-based).
Through proficiency testing using Fapas real food matrices, your testing ability can be evaluated, and areas of potential improvement are able to be identified and acted upon.
