Food Authority gains trust in detecting organofluorines
The General Authority for Food and Drug Safety achieved a significant milestone by having the reference laboratory in Dammam obtain international quality accreditation in accordance with the ISO/IEC 17025 standard. This makes it the first facility in the Middle East to develop and accredit an analytical method for detecting organic fluorescent compounds in food. This accreditation enables the detection of over 20 compounds, including four of global regulatory priority, such as those found in meats, milk, drinking water, and packaging contact materials. It aims to enhance food safety and represents a progressive step in early detection of emerging chemical pollutants. This achievement reflects Saudi Arabia's advancement in building specialized laboratory capabilities to support health regulation and provide high-quality food products.
