What is PD CEN/TS 17083-Determination of acrylamide in food and coffee about?
PD CEN/TS 17083 discusses the determination of acrylamide in foodstuffs and coffee. PD CEN/TS 17083 is a European standard that provides methods for the determination of acrylamide in food and coffee to ensure it is safe for consumption
PD CEN/TS 17083 specifies a method for the determination of acrylamide in cereal-based products, potato-based products, and coffee by gas-chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
The method specified under PD CEN/TS 17083 has been single laboratory validated via the analysis of spiked samples (French fries (uncooked), bread, water biscuit, infant cereal, biscuit, green coffee, roast coffee, and instant coffee), ranging from 30 microgram/kg to 1 500 microgram/kg acrylamide.
Who is PD CEN/TS 17083-Determination of acrylamide in food and coffee for?
PD CEN/TS 17083 on the determination of acrylamide in food and coffee is useful for:
- Food scientists
- Food technologists
- Food laboratories
- Food health and safety departments
Why should you use PD CEN/TS 17083-Determination of acrylamide in food and coffee?
Acrylamide can cause nerve damage in humans, including muscle weakness and impaired muscle coordination, particularly from industrial exposure to large levels of the chemical. Evidence from human studies that dietary exposure to acrylamide causes cancer is currently limited and inconclusive.
PD CEN/TS 17083 provides you with standard solution preparation, apparatus, procedures, GC-MS analysis, calculation and reporting, precision data, and much more.
The methods and procedures provided by PD CEN/TS 17083 assist in improving the quality of food and coffee and reducing the effect on human health due to consumption of acrylamide content.
By adopting PD CEN/TS 17083 you can enhance the efficacy of food and coffee and produce a standardized product.
