ISO 37148 Fungicide Profiling in Frozen Fruits
The ISO 37148 standard provides a comprehensive methodology for identifying and quantifying fungicides in frozen fruits. This service is particularly important for ensuring that the food products meet international quality standards, thereby safeguarding public health and promoting consumer confidence.
Frozen fruits are widely consumed around the world due to their convenience and extended shelf life. However, the use of fungicides during cultivation can lead to potential pesticide residue issues if not properly managed. These residues can affect the safety and quality of food products, which is why accurate testing is crucial before they reach consumers.
At Eurolab, our expertise in this area ensures that we adhere strictly to ISO 37148 guidelines. Our team uses advanced analytical techniques such as Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to profile fungicide residues with precision. This approach not only identifies the presence of fungicides but also quantifies them, providing detailed information on their concentrations.
Our testing process begins with rigorous sample preparation. Fresh fruit samples are carefully selected and prepared according to standardized procedures laid out in ISO 37148. The specimens undergo extraction followed by clean-up steps to ensure accurate results. Once the samples have been processed, they are analyzed using high-performance instrumentation.
The analytical techniques employed at Eurolab allow us to detect trace amounts of fungicides down to parts per billion (ppb) levels. This level of sensitivity ensures that even minimal residues can be identified and reported accurately. The results generated from these tests provide critical insights into the safety profile of the frozen fruits.
In addition to quantification, our service also includes a thorough evaluation of compliance with relevant regulatory requirements. By adhering strictly to ISO 37148, we ensure that all test outcomes are valid and reliable, which is essential for maintaining trust within the industry.
Our commitment to accuracy does not stop at technical proficiency; it extends to providing clear and comprehensive reports. These documents include detailed descriptions of our methodology, raw data, and final conclusions regarding compliance with international standards such as ISO 37148.
The importance of this service cannot be overstated given the growing concern over pesticide residue levels in food products. By offering reliable and accurate fungicide profiling services, Eurolab plays a vital role in promoting safer frozen fruit consumption globally.
