GMO-Free Agriculture Certification
In today's globalized food market, consumers are increasingly demanding transparency and authenticity in agricultural products. The certification of GMO-free agriculture plays a crucial role in ensuring that these expectations are met. This service ensures that the agricultural produce meets stringent international standards for being free from genetically modified organisms (GMOs). Compliance with such certifications not only enhances consumer trust but also opens doors to markets that strictly prohibit or regulate the use of genetically modified crops.
The process involves a series of rigorous tests and analyses to confirm the absence of any GMO materials in agricultural products. This service is particularly important for sectors like seed breeding, crop production, and food manufacturing where maintaining purity from genetic modification is essential. The certification also ensures that there are no unintended contamination events during handling or transportation.
The certification process typically includes:
- Sample preparation involving the collection of representative samples from various stages of agricultural processes.
- Detailed analysis using advanced analytical techniques such as PCR, ELISA, and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR).
- A comprehensive review of supply chain documentation to ensure no GMO materials have entered through unintended contamination.
The acceptance criteria for this service are based on the guidelines set by international standards such as ISO 31051:2020 and IEC TS 62796. These standards provide a robust framework that ensures consistent and accurate testing across different laboratories.
Our laboratory adheres strictly to these guidelines, ensuring that all tests are conducted with precision and reliability. This not only guarantees the accuracy of our results but also provides peace of mind for clients seeking GMO-free certification.
