ISO 17025 Accredited Food Additive Residue Analysis Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

The ISO 17025 standard for laboratory testing is a widely recognized and adopted international standard that ensures the competence, impartiality, and performance of laboratories. The standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is applicable to all types of laboratory tests, including food additive residue analysis.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The use of food additives in the food industry is strictly regulated by various national and international laws and regulations. In the European Union (EU), for example, the use of food additives is governed by Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 on Food Additives. Similarly, in the United States, the use of food additives is regulated by the US FDA.

International and National Standards

The following international and national standards apply to ISO 17025 Accredited Food Additive Residue Analysis testing:

  • ISO 17025:2017 General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories

  • ISO 14565:2005 Sensory analysis - Methodology - Residue analysis

  • EN 16562:2014 Foodstuffs - Residue analysis - General principles and methods

  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) TS EN 14151:2016 Foodstuffs - Residue analysis - General principles and methods

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The following standard development organizations play a crucial role in the development of standards related to food additive residue analysis:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • European Committee for Standardization (CEN)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

    • Standard Evolution and Update

    Standards are constantly evolving and getting updated to reflect new scientific knowledge, technological advancements, and regulatory requirements. Laboratories must stay up-to-date with the latest standards and regulations to ensure compliance and maintain their accreditation.

    Industry-Specific Standards and Requirements

    Different industries have specific standards and requirements for food additive residue analysis. For example:

  • Food manufacturers: EU Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008 on Food Additives

  • Regulatory authorities: US FDA, EU EFSA

  • Certification bodies: ISO 17025 accreditation

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Laboratories must comply with the relevant standards and regulations to ensure the accuracy, reliability, and validity of their test results. Non-compliance can result in loss of accreditation, fines, and damage to reputation.
