Complete Guide to ISO 19739 Quality Assurance in Chemical Residue Testing

ISO 19739:2018 is an international standard that outlines the requirements for quality assurance in chemical residue testing laboratories. This standard applies to laboratories that perform chemical residue testing, including those involved in food safety, environmental monitoring, and pharmaceuticals.

Relevant Standards

The following standards are relevant to ISO 19739:

  • ISO 17025:2017 - General Requirements for the Competence of Testing and Calibration Laboratories

  • ISO 9001:2015 - Quality Management Systems - Requirements

  • EN 14031:2003 - Chemical analysis - Determination of residues in foodstuffs

  • TSE 2340:2017 - Chemical analysis - Determination of residues in foodstuffs

    • Legal and Regulatory Framework

    The legal and regulatory framework surrounding chemical residue testing is complex and varies by country. In the European Union, for example, the Regulation (EC) No 2002/1829 establishes guidelines for the safety assessment of genetically modified organisms, which includes chemical residue testing.

    In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates chemical residue testing under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). Similarly, in Canada, Health Canada is responsible for regulating chemical residue testing under the Food and Drugs Act.

    Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in creating and maintaining standards. In the case of ISO 19739, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is the primary standard development organization.

    Other relevant standard development organizations include:

  • ASTM - American Society for Testing and Materials

  • EN - European Standards

  • TSE - Turkish Standards Institution

    • Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect changes in technology, regulations, and best practices. The ISO 19739 standard has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2003.

    The most recent revision, ISO 19739:2018, incorporates changes related to:

  • Quality management systems

  • Calibration and validation procedures

  • Measurement uncertainty

    • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Standard compliance requirements vary by industry. For example:

  • In the food industry, chemical residue testing is typically required for imported and exported products.

  • In the pharmaceutical industry, chemical residue testing may be necessary to ensure product purity and safety.

    • Industry-specific examples of standard compliance requirements are provided in the following table:

    Industry Standard Compliance Requirements

    --- ---

    Food EN 14031:2003, TSE 2340:2017

    Pharmaceuticals USP <232> and <233>, EP 2.4.19

    Environmental Monitoring ISO 17025:2017

    International Standards

    ISO 19739 is an international standard that has been adopted by several countries, including:

  • Australia - AS/NZS ISO 19739:2018

  • Canada - CAN/CSA-ISO 19739:18

  • European Union - EN ISO 19739:2018

    • National Standards

    National standards may vary depending on the country. For example:

  • In the United States, ASTM E2621-13 is equivalent to ISO 19739.

  • In Canada, CAN/CSA-ISO 19739:18 is the national standard.

    • Why This Test Is Needed and Required

    Chemical residue testing is necessary to ensure product safety and compliance with regulations. The consequences of non-compliance can be severe, including:

  • Product recalls

  • Financial penalties

  • Damage to reputation

    • The business and technical reasons for conducting ISO 19739 Quality Assurance in Chemical Residue Testing testing include:

  • Ensuring product quality and safety

  • Compliance with regulations and standards

  • Mitigating risk and liability

  • Improving customer confidence and trust

    • Industries and Sectors That Require This Testing

    The following industries and sectors require chemical residue testing:

  • Food and beverages

  • Pharmaceuticals

  • Environmental monitoring

  • Agriculture

    • Risk Factors and Safety Implications

    Chemical residues can have serious health implications, including:

  • Toxicity

  • Allergenicity

  • Carcinogenicity

    • The quality assurance and quality control aspects of chemical residue testing include:

  • Sample preparation procedures

  • Measurement and analysis methods

  • Calibration and validation procedures

    • Quality Assurance and Compliance Benefits

    Conducting ISO 19739 Quality Assurance in Chemical Residue Testing testing provides several benefits, including:

  • Improved product safety and reliability

  • Enhanced customer confidence and trust

  • Compliance with regulations and standards

  • Reduced risk and liability

    • Sample Preparation Procedures

    Sample preparation procedures involve the following steps:

    1. Sampling: Collecting representative samples of the product.

    2. Pre-treatment: Cleaning, grinding, or dissolving the sample as required.

    3. Extraction: Removing the analyte from the sample matrix.

    Measurement and Analysis Methods

    Measurement and analysis methods include:

  • Chromatography (e.g., HPLC, GC)

  • Spectroscopy (e.g., ICP-MS, AAS)

  • Immunoassay

    • Calibration and Validation Procedures

    Calibration and validation procedures involve the following steps:

    1. Calibration: Establishing a relationship between the instrument response and the analyte concentration.

    2. Validation: Verifying that the method meets the specified performance criteria.
