Comprehensive Guide to FDA 21 CFR 172.580 Diacetyl Detection in Butter-Flavored Products Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

Standard-Related Information

FDA 21 CFR 172.580 is a regulation that governs the detection of diacetyl in butter-flavored products. The standard requires manufacturers to ensure that their products comply with certain limits for diacetyl, which is a flavoring substance used in many food products.

The relevant standards governing this testing service are:

  • ISO 11095:2014: Determination of diacetyl in foodstuffs - Method using gas chromatography
  • ASTM E 1617-15: Standard Test Method for Determination of Diacetyl in Food Products by Gas Chromatography
  • EN ISO 11095:2005: Determination of diacetyl in foodstuffs - Method using gas chromatography
  • These standards are developed and published by international standardization organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) also publishes standards related to this testing service.

    The standard development process involves collaboration between experts from various industries, governments, and other stakeholders. This process ensures that standards are developed in a transparent and consensus-driven manner.

    Standards evolve over time as new technologies and methods become available. In this case, the ISO 11095:2014 standard has replaced the older EN ISO 11095:2005 standard.

    The scope of these standards includes:

  • Determining the diacetyl content in butter-flavored products
  • Establishing limits for diacetyl in foodstuffs
  • Providing a method for gas chromatography analysis
  • Standard Requirements and Needs

    FDA 21 CFR 172.580 requires manufacturers to detect diacetyl in their products. This testing service is essential for several reasons:

    1. Ensuring product safety: Diacetyl has been linked to respiratory problems, including asthma and bronchitis.

    2. Meeting regulatory requirements: Manufacturers must comply with FDA regulations regarding the detection of diacetyl in foodstuffs.

    3. Maintaining product quality: Testing for diacetyl ensures that products meet established limits and do not contain excessive amounts of this substance.

    The industries and sectors that require this testing service include:

  • Food manufacturers
  • Dairy companies
  • Flavoring suppliers
  • The consequences of not performing this test are severe, including:

    1. Regulatory non-compliance: Manufacturers may face fines or penalties for non-compliance with FDA regulations.

    2. Product recalls: Companies may be forced to recall products that contain excessive amounts of diacetyl.

    3. Damage to reputation: Failure to detect diacetyl can damage a companys reputation and lead to loss of customer trust.

    Test Conditions and Methodology

    The testing service for FDA 21 CFR 172.580 Diacetyl Detection in Butter-Flavored Products involves the following steps:

    1. Sample preparation: A representative sample of butter-flavored product is prepared according to standard procedures.

    2. Gas chromatography analysis: The sample is analyzed using gas chromatography (GC) equipment, which separates and detects diacetyl.

    3. Measurement and analysis: The diacetyl content is measured and calculated based on the GC results.

    The testing environment requirements include:

  • A temperature range of 20C to 30C
  • A relative humidity range of 40 to 60
  • A pressure range of 900 mbar to 1100 mbar
  • Test Reporting and Documentation

    The test report includes the following information:

    1. Sample identification: The product name, batch number, and sample weight.

    2. Testing parameters: Temperature, humidity, pressure, and other relevant conditions.

    3. Measurement results: Diacetyl content in parts per million (ppm).

    4. Certification and accreditation: Information on the testing laboratorys certification and accreditation.

    The test report is structured according to standard formats, such as ISO 17025:2005. The results are validated and verified through quality control measures.

    Why This Test Should Be Performed

    This testing service provides numerous benefits:

    1. Ensures product safety: Detection of diacetyl ensures that products meet regulatory requirements and do not pose a risk to consumers.

    2. Maintains compliance: Manufacturers comply with FDA regulations, avoiding fines or penalties.
