Synopsis

Analytical methods are crucial for ensuring food safety and compliance with global health standards. This book provides a detailed manual for those assessing metal contaminants in food, addressing the need for accurate, reproducible analytical techniques. Inductively ICP-MS is highlighted for its sensitivity and precision, vital for adhering to strict food safety limits. The book offers a clear, step-by-step guide on method validation, covering scope, specificity, detection and quantification limits, and precision. It details setting up ICP-MS protocols to meet standards from bodies like the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Authored by experienced analytical chemists, the book is both practical and scientifically thorough, aiming to enhance professional competence in metal analysis for food safety. It seeks to be a pivotal learning tool and reference for global laboratories, underlining the importance of precise metal analysis in safeguarding public health.
