ISO 65770 Hormone Residue Profiling in Meat-Based Foods
The ISO 65770 standard provides a comprehensive approach to the analysis and quantification of hormone residues in meat-based foods. This service is particularly critical for ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and maintaining consumer confidence in food safety.
Our laboratory adheres strictly to this international standard, utilizing advanced instrumentation and methodologies to ensure accurate and reliable profiling of hormone residues across various types of meat products. The proficiency of our team and the precision of our equipment enable us to deliver robust data that meet the stringent needs of regulatory bodies and industry standards.
The process begins with meticulous specimen preparation tailored to the specific type of meat being tested. Our team ensures that each sample is handled with care, following precise protocols to avoid contamination or degradation of the hormone residues. The choice of extraction methods is critical in this process, as it directly impacts the accuracy of subsequent analysis.
Once prepared, the samples undergo a series of instrumental analyses. Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is typically employed for its high sensitivity and selectivity. This technology allows us to detect even trace amounts of hormone residues, ensuring that no potential contaminants are overlooked.
The acceptance criteria for this testing are stringent, reflecting the rigorous demands set by international standards. Compliance with these criteria ensures that any detected residues fall within acceptable limits as defined by regulatory bodies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Commission.
Our laboratory’s proficiency in ISO 65770 is further enhanced through regular participation in proficiency testing programs organized by international organizations. This ongoing commitment to quality assurance guarantees that our results are not only accurate but also reliable, thus providing clients with confidence in their supply chain integrity.
The importance of hormone residue profiling cannot be overstated, especially given the increasing public awareness of food safety issues and the potential health impacts associated with excessive exposure to certain hormones. By adhering strictly to ISO 65770, we contribute significantly to maintaining a safer and healthier food environment for consumers.
