Analytical Quality Assurance and Metrological Traceability of Measurement Data in Food Safety Assessment: Advances in Analytical Systems

Maria Careri

Abstract

Innovative analytical approaches are being devised in response to emerging food safety and quality issues, as well as for food authenticity and traceability testing. Traceability fosters quality assurance as a drive for analytical reliability: to this aim, validation of analytical processes and metrological comparability of measurements are required. Accreditation practices and implementation of quality assurance programs improve the quality of analytical results in food control.
