ISO 54825 Multi-Class Residue Screening in Functional Foods

ISO 54825 Multi-Class Residue Screening in Functional Foods

The ISO 54825 standard provides a comprehensive framework for screening veterinary drug residues in functional foods. This service is designed to ensure the safety and quality of food products by identifying potential contaminants that could affect consumer health.

Functional foods are those intended to provide additional benefits beyond basic nutrition, such as promoting well-being or reducing the risk of disease. These products often contain active ingredients like probiotics, prebiotics, antioxidants, and other bioactive compounds. However, these beneficial properties can be compromised if they are contaminated with veterinary drugs.

Our ISO 54825 screening service covers a wide range of classes, including antibiotics, antiparasitics, and hormonal agents used in animal husbandry. The process involves several critical steps: sample collection, extraction, purification, quantification, and confirmation using advanced analytical techniques such as liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

The standard is particularly stringent because it requires the detection of residues at very low levels to protect public health. Compliance with ISO 54825 ensures that food products meet international safety standards and can be traded globally without hindrance.

Our team of experts uses state-of-the-art equipment and follows rigorous protocols to ensure accurate results. This service not only helps manufacturers comply with regulatory requirements but also provides valuable insights into the presence of any potential contaminants, enabling proactive measures to maintain product integrity.

The importance of this service cannot be overstated in today’s market where consumers are increasingly concerned about food safety and quality. By leveraging ISO 54825, companies can demonstrate their commitment to producing safe and reliable products, thereby enhancing consumer trust and brand reputation.

  • Comprehensive Coverage: Screening for multiple classes of veterinary drugs ensures no stone is left unturned in the quest for purity.
  • High Precision: Using LC-MS/MS technology allows for ultra-sensitive detection, even at trace levels.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring adherence to international standards helps avoid penalties and maintains market access.

In summary, our ISO 54825 Multi-Class Residue Screening in Functional Foods service is a cornerstone of quality assurance, providing peace of mind for both manufacturers and consumers. By adhering strictly to this standard, companies can ensure their products are safe, reliable, and free from harmful residues.
