Government regulations, cost control, in-line analysis for speed and compliance, food safety and research are just a few of the topics we present in this technical section. Analysis and control is certainly not becoming easier!

Analysis and control is not just about eliminating foreign bodies from food, although that is one part of the equation, be they metal, organic or other substances. Today, it is increasingly about hygiene and cross contamination, as well as bacterial and allergenic substances, not to mention making sure that a product retains consistent size, shape and quality throughout the production process. The difficulty is how to carry out analysis speedily and accurately while keeping costs to a minimum.  And it’s not just about the ever-stricter regulations regarding food safety and hygiene. A bad product can destroy your brand. Many of FoodEurope’s contributors have come up with innovative ways to tackle these issues: moisture analysers, SEC technology, ATP bioluminescence, x-ray technology and much more. Apart from food safety, analysis and control is also about the latest research into micronutrient supplementation, and in every edition we present the latest in this field.
