PFAS Safety Testing: What should food and ingredient manufacturers fear?

From the legislative requirements, risk assessment research, to implementing advanced solutions: How should you be testing PFAS in food to manage risks to consumer and manufacturer.

As PFAS testing regulations expand in scope and requirement, food producers and their testing labs face challenges to meet demands. From speed to result, avoiding lab introduced contamination, maintaining efficiency, productivity, and profitability, management of PFAS demands rigorous processes.

Learn about the likely future of PFAS contamination testing and how the challenges could affect your lab and the way you analyze. And find out how Agilent could support you, providing top-performing instrumentation, software, consumables, and services to meet your needs and find the best solutions for food safety testing.

Measuring PFAS Exposure to Maintain Safe Food

PFAS can enter food through environmental uptake, water use in crop and ingredient production or bioaccumulation in livestock, impacting supply chain, raw materials, ingredients, processing, and packaging. Analytical testing is critical to manage these processes.
