Comprehensive Guide to ISO 18369 Additive Residue Detection in Beverages Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 18369 is an international standard that governs the detection of additives residues in beverages. This standard is developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a non-profit organization that brings together experts from around the world to establish common standards for products, services, and systems.

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 18369 testing is established by national and international regulations. For example, in the European Union, the Food Safety Authority sets out guidelines for the detection of additives residues in foodstuffs, including beverages (European Commission, 2020). Similarly, in the United States, the FDA establishes regulations for the detection of additives residues in food products, including beverages (US FDA, 2022).

The international standard ISO 18369 is based on the principles outlined in ISO/IEC 17025, which sets out the general requirements for testing and calibration laboratories (ISO, 2017). This standard requires laboratories to meet certain criteria, including:

  • Having a quality management system in place

  • Using qualified personnel and equipment

  • Maintaining accurate records and data

  • Ensuring test methods are validated and calibrated

    • Eurolab is accredited by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) for ISO/IEC 17025:2017, which demonstrates our commitment to maintaining high standards of testing and calibration services.

    Standard compliance requirements vary depending on the industry or sector. For example:

  • Food and Beverage Manufacturers must comply with national regulations, such as EU Food Safety Authority guidelines

  • Cosmetic manufacturers must comply with international standards, such as ISO 17025

  • Pharmaceutical companies must comply with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations

    • ISO 18369 testing is necessary to ensure that beverages meet regulatory requirements for safety and quality. Additives residues in beverages can pose health risks to consumers, particularly children and pregnant women.

    The consequences of not performing ISO 18369 testing are severe:

  • Regulatory non-compliance

  • Product recalls

  • Damage to reputation and brand image

    • Industries requiring this testing include:

  • Food and Beverage Manufacturers

  • Cosmetic Manufacturers

  • Pharmaceutical Companies

    • Risk factors and safety implications associated with additives residues in beverages include:

  • Health risks, such as cancer and neurological damage

  • Allergic reactions and sensitization

  • Contamination of food products

    • The testing environment requirements include:

  • Temperature: 20C 2C

  • Humidity: 60 10

  • Pressure: 1 atm

    • Sample preparation procedures involve:

  • Homogenization of the sample

  • Extraction and purification

  • Sample dilution

    • Testing parameters and conditions are as follows:

  • HPLC: Column temperature, flow rate, injection volume

  • GC-MS: Column temperature, flow rate, injection volume

  • ICP-MS: Plasma power, sample flow rate

    • Measurement and analysis methods involve:

  • Peak identification using mass spectrometry (MS) or ultraviolet (UV) detection

  • Quantitation using internal standards or calibration curves

    • Eurolabs ISO 18369 testing service provides detailed reports, which include:

  • Test method used

  • Sample preparation procedures

  • Testing parameters and conditions

  • Results, including peak identification and quantitation data

  • Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ)

    • Reports are documented in accordance with the following standards:

  • ISO 15189:2012

  • ISO/IEC 17025:2017

    • Why This Test Should Be Performed

    Performing ISO 18369 testing provides numerous benefits, including:

  • Ensuring product safety and quality

  • Maintaining regulatory compliance

  • Protecting brand image and reputation

  • Enhancing customer confidence and trust

  • Facilitating international trade and market access
