AOAC 2017.13 Casein Detection in Vegan-Labeled Products: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

The detection of casein in vegan-labeled products is a critical aspect of ensuring the authenticity and safety of plant-based food products. The Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) has developed a standard, AOAC 2017.13, which outlines the methodology for detecting casein in such products.

Relevant Standards

  • ISO 22000:2005 - Food Safety Management Systems
  • EN 15601:2013 - Requirements for organizations providing food safety management systems (FSMS)
  • TSE K Code of Good Practice No. 1: Food Safety Management System
  • ASTM E2589-16 - Standard Guide for Evaluating the Authenticity of Plant-Based Foods
  • Legal and Regulatory Framework

    The European Unions (EU) Food Labelling Regulation (1169/2011/EU) requires that food products labeled as vegan must not contain animal-derived ingredients, including casein. The EUs General Food Law Regulation (178/2002/EC) also mandates the use of analytical methods to detect undeclared allergens and contaminants in food products.

    Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), and the Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) are among the prominent standard development organizations involved in developing standards related to casein detection in vegan-labeled products.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to address emerging issues, improve analytical methods, and reflect changing regulatory requirements. The AOAC 2017.13 standard is a revision of the earlier AOAC 2005.02 standard and incorporates advances in analytical technology and methodology.

    Specific Standard Numbers and Their Scope

  • ISO 22000:2005 - Food Safety Management Systems (Scope: Applies to all organizations involved in the food chain)
  • EN 15601:2013 - Requirements for Organizations Providing Food Safety Management Systems (Scope: Applies to organizations providing FSMS)
  • TSE K Code of Good Practice No. 1: Food Safety Management System (Scope: Applies to Turkish food industry)
  • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with standards related to casein detection in vegan-labeled products is mandatory for all industries involved in the production, processing, and distribution of plant-based foods.

    The need for AOAC 2017.13 Casein Detection in Vegan-Labeled Products testing arises from the growing demand for plant-based food products and the increasing awareness of animal-derived ingredients in such products.
