Creation of a digital platform to exchange on methods of analysis
Our objectives
- Develop a digital platform to facilitate the sharing of analytical methods
- Compare methods used with the international official methods
- Identify gaps with the analytical methods used
- Determine improvement actions e.g. capacity building, method development, etc
Digital analytical methods sharing platform
Who are the users?
- Regulatory authorities and food control bodies
- Industry
- Contract Research Labs
- Academia
What are the benefits?
- Enables transparency of the methods laboratories use to quantify specific analytes in specific matrices
- Allows comparison of analytical methods and their performance
- Facilitate alignment and harmonisation of analytical methods
- Allows the community to identify analytical methods development and capacity building needs
- Facilitates consensus around whether an analytical method is fit for purpose
How does it work?
