Mycotoxins are toxic secondary metabolites produced by fungi on agricultural commodities in the field or during storage. It is estimated at 25% of the world's food crops are affected, resulting in large commercial losses. Mycotoxins can cause serious health problems (including some being suspected carcinogens) and so are tightly regulated across the world. Mycotoxin contamination is the largest cause of rapid alerts raised against imported food products.
This quality control material is specifically for Patulin in clear apple juice and, where possible, uses naturally incurred test materials.
Patulin is a specific mycotoxin produced by a number of moulds. It is most commonly found within rotting apples. As such this can highlight the quality of apples used within production, and therefore provide a key measure of an organisations supply chain position. It is important to utilise high quality, accurate testing measures from which to ensure your customers can make informed decisions regarding their supply chain.
Apple juice is consumed globally in large quantities. This can put strain on complex global supply chains to meet these consumer demands, resulting in a range of potential issues associated with poor quality foodstuffs, such as illness among others. It is therefore essential to maintain high quality testing abilities from which to adequately protect consumers.
Quality control materials from Fapas make use of real food materials, from which to ensure direct comparisons between your quality assurance activities and routine analysis. This can maintain the high quality testing measures currently offered to customers. Fapas quality control materials are ideal for removing bias from your current testing arrangement, through staff training activities or instrumentation verification. This can form a valuable tool to ensure your customers, and regulators, receive the credible test results they require.
