AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 Detection of GMO in Linseed: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

The detection of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in linseed is a critical aspect of ensuring the quality and safety of food products. The AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 provides a standardized approach for detecting GMOs in linseed, which is essential for regulatory compliance and consumer trust.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The European Unions (EU) GMO legislation requires that all food and feed products containing or derived from GMOs be authorized before they can be placed on the market. The EUs GMO regulatory framework is based on the principles of risk assessment, labeling, and authorization.

The AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 is aligned with the EUs GMO legislation and provides a harmonized approach for detecting GMOs in linseed. This method is also compliant with international standards such as ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and EN ISO/IEC 17065:2012.

International and National Standards

The AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 is based on the following international and national standards:

  • AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 (Detection of GMOs in Linseed)

  • EU Regulation No. 1829/2003 (GMO legislation)

  • EU Regulation No. 1830/2003 (GMO labeling requirements)

  • ISO/IEC 17025:2017 (General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories)

  • EN ISO/IEC 17065:2012 (Conformity assessment - Requirements for bodies providing inspection and certification)

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 was developed by the American Oil Chemists Society (AOCS), a non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the science of oilseeds and fats. The AOCS is responsible for developing and maintaining official methods for testing and analyzing oilseeds, including GMO detection.

    Standard Evolution and Updates

    Standards evolve and get updated regularly to reflect new scientific developments, technological advancements, and regulatory changes. The AOCS Official Method Ba 12-75 has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2007, with the most recent revision published in 2019.

    Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with international and national standards is essential for laboratories providing GMO detection services. Laboratories must demonstrate their competence to perform the test by following a quality management system (QMS) that meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2017.
