Latest NewsTraceability and authenticity of feed materials 08 Nov 2011
At present the complexity of food and feed production systems is steadily increasing and particularly feed trade is subjected to globalisation. In addition, feed materials are obtained from new sources or are produced by new technologies. These facts may contribute to new and unforeseen risks for animal and human health. In a crisis situation due to contamination or adulteration of feed materials, the identification of origin can be essential in regard to feed safety as well as food safety.
Work Package 2 of the EU research project QSAFFE (Quality and Safety of Feeds and Food in Europe) will develop and improve systems of traceability and authenticity of feed materials. This will be achieved by application of different analytical techniques in order to identify useful tools in tracing origin and composition of feed materials.
