Test Description

As nutritional legislation increases, the proficiency of laboratories to provide accurate results to food manufacturers for labelling is critical, to help consumers make informed choices about the food they eat. Fapas offers the widest range of analyte/matrix proficiency test combinations for the food sector.

The common nutritional components are moisture, ash, total fat and nitrogen, which are included in this proficiency test. This proficiency test includes total sugars, in line with the typically increased content in condensed milk.

Condensed milk is a processed food used within various desert dished around the world. Condensed milks may be within many different variations, such as sweetened and unsweetened. This can cause confusion with consumers within a buying decision. As such it is important to highlight any false claims nutritional or general labelling claims made by manufacturers in an effort to improve their financial reward. This requires extensive testing measures which must be maintained through extensive quality assurance techniques, such as proficiency testing.

Nutritional proximates offer an insight into a products quality. Within condensed milk it is important to distinguish any nutritional values and how accurate these may be.  

Reference materials offer key advantages for laboratories, over and above that of quality control materials. With an improved degree of characterisation compared to proficiency tests or quality control materials, reference materials have a plethora of uses, including method calibration.

They also have a defined chain of traceability, so you know exactly what is in your reference materials. This is further supported through our reference materials associated data sheet which covers its reference values and expanded uncertainty. This datasheet is invaluable for method validation or verification as well as an effective tool for staff training, to standardise your testing processes.
