ISO 30772 Multi-Residue Pesticide Profiling in Soy Drinks
The ISO 30772 standard provides a robust methodology for multi-residue pesticide profiling, which is particularly relevant for food and feed testing. This service specifically targets the analysis of pesticides in soy drinks, ensuring that products meet stringent safety and quality standards.
ISO 30772 is designed to be versatile, accommodating various sample types, including liquids like soy drinks. The test protocol covers a wide range of pesticide residues, from organophosphates to fungicides, which are commonly found in agricultural practices. This comprehensive approach ensures that the testing process adheres to international standards and provides reliable results.
The methodology involves several critical steps: sample preparation, extraction, purification, and analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). Each step is meticulously documented to ensure reproducibility and accuracy. This ensures that the test can be replicated under identical conditions, which is essential for compliance with international regulations.
The primary goal of this service is to identify all regulated pesticide residues in soy drinks, ensuring they are within acceptable limits as defined by regulatory bodies such as the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Sample preparation is crucial for accurate results. It involves homogenizing the sample, followed by extraction using a suitable solvent. The extracted solution undergoes purification to remove matrix components that could interfere with the analysis. This step ensures that only the pesticide residues are analyzed.
The HPLC/MS/MS system used in this service provides high sensitivity and selectivity, allowing for the detection of trace levels of pesticides. The system is capable of identifying over 200 different compounds, including organochlorines, pyrethroids, and carbamates.
Once the analysis is complete, the results are reported according to ISO 30772 guidelines. This includes a detailed summary of all detected residues, their concentrations, and any exceedances of regulatory limits. The report also provides recommendations for corrective actions if necessary.
The service ensures that soy drinks meet stringent safety standards, thereby protecting consumer health and ensuring product quality. By adhering to international standards, this test aligns with global trends towards more transparent and rigorous food safety practices.
Compliance with ISO 30772 is essential for companies operating in the food and beverage sector. It demonstrates a commitment to quality and safety, which can enhance consumer trust and brand reputation. This service not only meets regulatory requirements but also helps companies stay ahead of emerging trends in pesticide residue testing.
