ISO 24687 Pesticide metabolite residue determination in poultryComprehensive Guide to ISO 24687 Pesticide Metabolite Residue Determination in Poultry Testing Services Provided by Eurolab
ISO 24687 is an international standard that provides guidelines for the determination of pesticide metabolite residues in poultry. This standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is widely adopted by laboratories worldwide. The standard specifies the methods and procedures for testing pesticide metabolites in poultry, including the sampling, preparation, and analysis of samples.
Legal and Regulatory Framework
The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 24687 Pesticide Metabolite Residue Determination in Poultry Testing is primarily governed by national and international regulations. In the European Union, for example, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 sets out the maximum residue limits (MRLs) for pesticide residues in food products, including poultry.
In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates pesticide use and establishes tolerances for pesticide residues in food products. The US Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) also plays a role in ensuring that meat, poultry, and egg products comply with national safety standards.
