AOAC 2004.08 Hormone residue detection in eggsAOAC 2004.08 Hormone Residue Detection in Eggs Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab: A Comprehensive Guide
The detection of hormone residues in eggs is a critical aspect of ensuring food safety and quality. The AOAC (Association of Official Analytical Chemists) 2004.08 standard provides a widely accepted method for detecting hormone residues in eggs. This standard is based on the principles outlined in ISO 17025:2017, which specifies the general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories.
Legal and Regulatory Framework
The detection of hormone residues in eggs is governed by various national and international regulations. In the European Union, for example, Regulation (EC) No 1234/2003 sets out the maximum residue limits (MRLs) for certain hormones in animal feed and products derived from animals fed with these substances.
In the United States, the FDA regulates the use of hormones in animal feed under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also plays a role in regulating hormone residues in food products.
International and National Standards
The AOAC 2004.08 standard is based on the following international and national standards:
Standard Development Organizations
The AOAC is a non-profit organization that develops and publishes standards for analytical methods. The ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and EN (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization) are also involved in standard development.
Evolution of Standards
Standards evolve over time to reflect advances in technology, changes in regulatory requirements, and new scientific knowledge. The AOAC 2004.08 standard has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2004.
