Expert laboratory analysis to ensure food products are free of 3-MCPD and glycidyl esters.
3-MCPD are a commonly occurring group of process contaminants that were originally identified in soy sauce and acid hydrolyzed protein. They are formed during food production and have the potential to be harmful. Glycidyl esters (GE) are formed when a product reaches a high temperature for a prolonged period of time.
You need to ensure your products comply with market regulations in relation to 3-MCPD and GE by using the appropriate methodology.
