This round cannot be purchased on its own, it is only available in conjunction with the similarly numbered pesticide residue round.
Animal fats are formed from various animal products and are used within a large amount of processed foods such as fast food as fillers, and as cooking ingredients in processes such as frying.
The extensive amount of uses for animal fats create a need for effective testing underwritten by robust proficiency testing practices to provide the confidence needed for such a large part of foodstuffs.
Pesticide residues are regulated in many countries and for many commodities, with maximum residue limits set within EU and other legislation. Pesticide residues can translocate across the food chain and into animal products.
This blank material is ideal to ensure effective calibration curves are created. This can ensure only high quality test results are found. Blank materials from Fapas are ideal for ensuring matrix matching takes place. By using blank materials as close to positive test samples as possible the matrix effect is dramatically reduced.
Blank materials from Fapas make use of real food matrices to provide the key insights into your routine testing abilities you require. These can be used to maintain the level of accuracy required to satisfy both your customers and regulators of your testing capabilities.
This multi-residue method includes organochlorinated pesticides (OCs), which are banned across a large range of countries globally, including throughout the EU and North America. This is due to their potential adverse effects on wildlife and human health. Although this is the case there is still some extensive use within developing countries for disease control. As such proficient testing must be employed to monitor and detect any contamination within relevant foodstuffs such as animal fat.
