Comprehensive Guide to EN ISO 19343 Food Additive Residue in Spice Testing Laboratory Testing Service

EN ISO 19343 is a laboratory testing standard that specifies the requirements for testing food additive residues in spices. This standard is part of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) family and has been adopted by several countries, including Europe, North America, and Asia.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding EN ISO 19343 is governed by various national and international regulations. In the European Union, for example, the use of food additives in spices is regulated under Regulation (EC) No 1830/2003, which requires that all food additives be authorized before they can be used in food products.

In North America, the United States FDA regulates the use of food additives in spices through the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FDCA), while Health Canada regulates the use of food additives in spices under the Food and Drugs Act.

International and National Standards

EN ISO 19343 is a generic standard that applies to all types of spices, including herbs, roots, bark, seeds, fruits, flowers, leaves, and other plant material. The standard specifies the requirements for testing food additive residues in spices, including the selection of samples, preparation of samples, and analysis of residues.

The standard is based on several international standards, including ISO 3632 (Spices), ISO 3633 (Herbs), and ISO 3634 (Other plant materials). In addition, several national standards have been developed to supplement EN ISO 19343, such as the US FDAs guidelines for testing food additives in spices.

Standard Development Organizations

The development of EN ISO 19343 was carried out by a technical committee comprising experts from various countries and industries. The standard is maintained by ISO/TC 34 (Food products), which is responsible for developing standards related to food products, including spices.

Evolution of Standards

Standards evolve over time as new technologies and methods become available. EN ISO 19343 was first published in 2014 and has undergone several revisions since then. The standard will continue to be updated as necessary to reflect changes in regulations, technology, and industry practices.

Standard Numbers and Scope

The following are some of the key standard numbers related to EN ISO 19343:

  • EN ISO 19343:2020 (Food additive residues in spices - Sampling, preparation of samples and analysis)
  • ISO 3632:2019 (Spices)
  • ISO 3633:2019 (Herbs)
  • ISO 3634:2019 (Other plant materials)
  • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with EN ISO 19343 is a requirement for all industries that use food additives in spices, including the spice trade, food manufacturing, and regulatory bodies. The standard provides a framework for ensuring the safety of consumers by providing a robust testing protocol for food additive residues.
