This UK Food Standards Agency (FSA) 'Food for Thought' seminar breaks down key findings based on FSA project FS900408 Guidance for Point Of Contact Technologies.
Industry experts Malcolm Burns and Gavin Nixon of the National Measurement Laboratory present results from a current review of the potential for point of contact technology for food testing for both official controls and the wider food sector. They provide an overview of key terms, technologies, trends and barriers to adoption, and provide recommendations to further develop a framework to support point of contact food testing.
This seminar has been added to the eSeminars section of FAN's training pages.
