The quality control material is for the quantification and identification of natural hormones. At natural levels these are not a problem, but levels might be artificially elevated, in order to gain advantage, especially for beef production. The gender of the animal is important in determining natural hormones, but detections in the wrong gender of animal, or unusually high levels in the right gender of animal, can indicate mis-use. Urine and blood serum provide different matrices in which to analyse these hormones.
Animal products for human consumption are tightly legislated and closely monitored for compliance. This is because veterinary medicines used in animals are likely to have similar pharmacological effects in humans. Hence, for many veterinary medicines there are extremely low maximum residue limits (MRL), or even no limit, with any detection classed as non-compliant. This puts a large emphasis on the accuracy of testing laboratories across a range of matrices when detecting these potential contaminants.
Pork continues to be globally consumed in large quantities, giving supply chains and food testing laboratories challenges to maintain safe produce offered to the consumer.
Fapas quality control materials make use of real food matrices, from which to provide direct comparison with your real world testing arrangement. Through effective quality assurance methods areas of improvement can be addressed, from which to achieve high quality testing and control any areas of bias which may negatively affect results. Through activities such as staff training and instrumentation verification this bias can be addressed
