Test Description

Deliberate food adulteration for economic gain is increasing, with high profile issues making national or international news. There is now a greater emphasis on authenticity testing with a number of international projects addressing the analytical problems. The Fapas authenticity and adulteration quality control materials allow laboratories to assess their detection capability for undeclared high level substitutions

Meat is generally more expensive than other foodstuffs, and as such can be a target for unscrupulous producers looking for financial gain. There is a sizeable reliance on effective testing from food laboratories, to satisfy regulators and maintain high quality products for manufacturers. Food laboratories can have a direct impact on brand damage where food adulteration was missed through ineffective testing capabilities. This can have both reputation and financial implications for both food laboratories and product manufacturers. To negate this risk, quality control measures should be used to improve any sub-standard testing abilities.

Fapas quality control materials make use of real food matrices from which to ensure direct comparisons can be made between your routine analysis and quality control results. From these insights your testing abilities can be safeguarded across the year to ensure the accuracy of your results is maintained through staff training activities and instrumentation calibration activities
