Food allergies are a real and growing public health issue.  

The basic goal of toxicology is to elucidate the magnitude of the expression of a particular hazard along the continuum of exposure.

Food industry toxicologists must also assess the safety of food-relevant chemicals, including pesticides.

When evaluating materials for use in food packaging and other food contact applications, a number of considerations are important.

Outsourcing is not for everyone, and many companies operate highly efficient internal laboratories.

Technological advances in analytical chemistry make it possible to detect chemicals in food matrices at extremely low levels.

Thermo Scientific's Vanquish™ ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) system addresses the needs of chromatographers within a single integrated yet flexible platform, while meeting the throughput demands of modern laboratories.

Historically, FDA exercised jurisdiction over the safety of antimicrobials used in or on food, except those used on raw agricultural commodities.

The success of the implementation and completion of a corrective action plan must be verified through follow-up, which may include testing.

Innovative and cutting-edge analytical method approaches are being developed in response to emerging food safety issues.
