ISO 22000 Verification of Allergen-Free Additive Claims Laboratory Testing Service: A Comprehensive Guide

Standard-Related Information

The ISO 22000 standard is a globally recognized framework for food safety management systems. It provides a structured approach to ensure the control of hazards in the food chain, from primary production through processing, storage, distribution, and consumption. The standard is based on a risk-based approach, focusing on preventive measures rather than corrective actions.

ISO 22000 is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in collaboration with the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex). It is applicable to any organization involved in food production, processing, storage, or distribution, regardless of size, type, or complexity.

In addition to ISO 22000, other relevant standards include:

  • EN 13943:2003A1:2014 - Allergenicity testing

  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) 1182:2007 - Food safety management systems

  • ASTM E2535-14 - Standard Practice for Evaluating and Verifying the Effectiveness of a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) System

    • These standards provide guidelines for food manufacturers to ensure the control of allergens in their products, thereby protecting public health.

    Standard Requirements and Needs

    The ISO 22000 Verification of Allergen-Free Additive Claims testing service is necessary due to the increasing number of consumers with allergies or intolerance. According to Food Allergy Research Education (FARE), approximately 1 in 13 children and 1 in 50 adults in the United States have a food allergy.

    This test ensures that food manufacturers comply with regulatory requirements, such as those set by the European Unions Food Information for Consumers Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011. The regulation requires food businesses to provide accurate labeling of allergens on food packaging.

    The consequences of not performing this test can be severe, including:

  • Product recalls and associated financial losses

  • Damage to brand reputation and customer trust

  • Potential legal actions and fines

    • Test Conditions and Methodology

    The ISO 22000 Verification of Allergen-Free Additive Claims testing service involves the following steps:

    1. Sample Preparation: A representative sample is collected from the food product, ensuring it is properly stored and handled to maintain its integrity.

    2. Equipment and Instruments: The test utilizes state-of-the-art equipment, including spectroscopy instruments and chromatography systems, to detect allergens.

    3. Testing Environment: The testing environment is controlled for temperature (22C 2C), humidity (50 10), and pressure (1 atm 0.5 atm).

    4. Sample Preparation Procedures: The sample is extracted, homogenized, and diluted according to the standards requirements.

    5. Testing Parameters and Conditions: The test involves the analysis of allergen-specific antibodies or DNA/RNA sequences using techniques such as ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) or PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction).

    6. Measurement and Analysis Methods: The results are obtained by measuring the absorbance, fluorescence, or other spectral signals generated during the analysis.

    7. Calibration and Validation Procedures: Regular calibration and validation of equipment ensures accurate and reliable test results.

    8. Quality Control Measures During Testing: Strict quality control measures are implemented to ensure test accuracy and reliability.

    Test Reporting and Documentation

    The ISO 22000 Verification of Allergen-Free Additive Claims testing service provides a comprehensive report, including:

  • Test result summary

  • Methodology description

  • Instrument calibration and validation data

  • Sample preparation procedures

  • Testing parameters and conditions

  • Measurement and analysis methods

  • Certification and accreditation information

    • Why This Test Should Be Performed

    Performing the ISO 22000 Verification of Allergen-Free Additive Claims testing service offers numerous benefits, including:

    1. Risk Assessment and Mitigation: Identifying potential allergens in products reduces the risk of adverse reactions.
