- Preventing Foreign Material in Red Meat: Measure Twice
-
Foreign material is introduced in two ways: via raw materials and internally by the production process. They offer different challenges and require specific strategies to address them.
- Investigation and Identification of Physical Contaminants in Food
-
Most physical contaminants of foods, such as pieces of hard plastic or wood, can cause consumers immediate injury; this includes all types of foods, including beverages, bottled water, and nutritional and functional products.
- Foreign-Material Reduction Programs—An Integrated Approach Using Teamwork
-
Foreign material can be a difficult and costly issue in food manufacturing.
- Foreign Materials in Foods: Control and Evaluation
-
Materials such as glass, metal, wood, plastic, bone, rocks and others are among those that the industry works very hard to keep out of raw materials, ingredients and finished goods.
- Checking Field Thermometer Accuracy
-
Need an accurate thermometer? Here’s a how-to guide for calibrating and validating your field thermometer.
- Tests Detect Protein in Corn Not Approved for Export
-
Romer Labs has introduced two new monitoring tools for the detection of eCry3.1Ab protein expressed by Syngenta's Agrisure Duracade insect-resistant corn.
- The Sample Has Been Taken, the Results Are In: Now What?
-
The success of the implementation and completion of a corrective action plan must be verified through follow-up, which may include testing.
- New Technologies for Foreign Body Identification
-
The food microscopist charged with the laboratory identification of foreign bodies reported from food products will have to use a wide range of techniques in this work.
- New NIR Milk Powder Analyzer Tests for Known and Unknown Compounds
-
PerkinElmer, Inc. on Oct. 31 introduced the DairyGuard™ milk powder analyzer, a near infrared (NIR) spectrometer specifically developed for food suppliers and manufacturers to test for unknown adulterants as well as known compounds, such as protein, moisture and fat content.
- Temperature Control Devices for Respirometry Applications
-
PolyScience introduces two products for controlling temperature during respirometry applications: a heated circulator and a recirculating chiller.
- How Wendy's Prevents Foreign Material in Its Meat Supply: A Proactive Approach
-
Wendy’s first line of defense is their quality systems in place at each processing plant and a trained workforce and a system that alerts them to possible presence of foreign materials.
- Ingredient and Finished Product Testing For Extraneous Matter
-
There are numerous techniques available to screen materials for the presence of extraneous matter.
- Foreign Object Detection: Integration in Food Production
-
Ample technology exists for the detection of foreign material in foodstuffs to ensure food safety, which should be complemented by quality control practices.
- The Dirty Dozen: Ways to Reduce the 12 Biggest Foreign Materials Problems
-
Foreign materials in foods are a real concern to the food processor, particularly as an important factor in the effective implementation of the company's food safety program.
- Foreign Material Control: Food Quality, Safety or Both?
-
Foreign material such as glass, wood, metal, fruit pits, bone or stones have the potential to cause injury.
- Product Safety Device Maintenance Is Critical
-
There is no doubt that product safety devices…have helped make the food and beverage industry safer.
- Technological Analyses: Adding Value for the Food Industry
-
Standardized practices and procedures are the backbone of a laboratory and ensure consistent and reliable results.
- Identification of Plastics in Food: Challenges and Solutions
-
When we examine the food safety risks of plastic contaminants in food products, we are faced with a number of possibilities.
- A Year in Foreign Material Contamination
-
A detailed discussion of maintenance system requirements to prevent foreign material contamination incidents is warranted.
