This white paper will provide a brief overview of both prevention and investigation of spoilage. By focusing on principles, it will not be able to answer every question, but rather will illustrate questions to ask during product design and failure investigations.

Calibration standards are a necessary investment in reducing production risks and improving overall profit. How do you choose the right calibration frequency for your diary production?

One way to improve profitability is to reduce waste by not placing more of the valuable components in your products than is necessary. In the dairy industry, shrink may be seen when producing products with more protein and/or fat than may be required based on industry-determined minimum values.

Eurofins is proud to offer a new service as part of its dairy testing portfolio. The Eurofins team has developed and validated a method to detect recombinant Bovine Somatotropin (rBST) in liquid milk products.

Ethylene oxide is gaining attention in the food regulatory space. EtO was banned as a food fumigant in 1991 in the EU. While ethylene oxide is not banned for use in foods in the United States, it is important to understand the allowed tolerances in the US and EU, especially as regulations continue to evolve and online sales contribute to increasing overseas exports. This article outlines the uses and toxicity of EtO, US and EU regulations, and EtO analysis at Eurofins.

Foreign materials in products can be dangerous to consumers and damage a brand's reputation. At Eurofins, we have the expertise and experience to handle all kinds of foreign material investigations, including contamination of finished products, like cheese. This case study explains how we helped a client determine the source of foreign material contamination and eliminate future issues using microscopy and elemental analysis.
