Animal products for human consumption are tightly legislated and closely monitored for compliance. Veterinary medicines used in animals are likely to have a pharmacological effect in humans. Hence, for many veterinary medicines, there are extremely low maximum residue limits or even no MRL (i.e. any detection is non-compliant). The Fapas proficiency test materials are produced in keeping with EU MRLs or minimum required performance limit (MRPL) where MRLs are not set. The result reporting requirements are also in keeping with quality control guidelines laid out in EC/657/2002. Fapas veterinary medicine proficiency test materials include incurred residues as well as fortified animal products. The proficiency tests are grouped in analytical chemical class/matrix combinations and combine identification and quantification. The proficiency tests are suitable for all methods, including screening methods (for the detection of total amount of that chemical class).
Laboratories must employ effective testing backed through proficiency testing, giving the credibility in results needed for key stakeholders to make far reaching decisions. Fapas proficiency testing take this a step further by utilising real food samples to provide the closest comparison to your routine testing activities. This allows effective quality control processes to be maintained and improved, which have wide ranging effects on testing success.
Proficiency testing is a crucial tool from which to highlight and maintain the highly accurate testing ability required to fulfil customer needs and regulators requirements. Fapas proficiency tests make use of real food matrices, from which to maintain a high level of accuracy across your testing arrangement.
