Food Additive Testing

Food additives are synthetic or natural substances added to food to improve the quality, color, aroma and taste of food or to meet the needs of antisepsis, preservation and processing technology. The use of food additives improves food quality, enriches food types, meets consumers' needs for diversified food, and makes important contributions to the development of the modern food industry.

Rational use of food additives is conducive to improving food quality and has good economic and social benefits. However, excessive use of food additives can cause damage to human health. In order to protect consumer health, the World Health Organization and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations have established a special Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) to establish globally unified principles and methods for food safety risk assessment of food additives, and to carry out food safety risk assessment of food additives at the international level.

Food additive testing is based on relevant international standards and regulations to conduct component analysis, content testing, performance evaluation and safety prediction of food additives. Professional food additive testing can not only help enterprises choose the right food additives to improve product quality and reduce production costs, but also identify potential safety risks, ensure food safety, and protect the health and legitimate rights and interests of consumers.
