Validation of Analytical Methods For Food Control

A Joint FAO/IAEA Expert Consultation on Validation of Analytical Methods for Food Control was held in Vienna, Austria, from 2 to 4 December 1997. The Consultation participants are listed in Annex 1. The Consultation was opened by Dr. James Dargie, Director, Joint FAO/IAEA Division, who welcomed the participants on behalf of the Directors-General of both FAO and IAEA. In welcoming the participants, Dr. Dargie outlined the increased emphasis and importance of Codex activities and stand ards within the Joint FAO/IAEA Division, especially as they relate to international trade. Many of these standards involve chemical analysis of food products and such analyses must be conducted with appropriate and validated analytical methods. Up to the time of this Consultation, the validation requirements of a method used for Codex purposes have been rigourous and in some instances Codex Committees have requested extensive collaborative studies. There are, however, alternative valid ation procedures which this Consultation has been asked to consider. For a method to be accepted and used by national governments, the validated method must be both practical and suitable for use. Dr. Dargie underlined the importance of the Consultation in providing international guidance and recommendations in this area. He also stressed the importance of the Consultation in guiding future work within the recently established FAO/IAEA Training and Reference Centre for Food and Pestici de Control. He pointed out that the fundamental objective of this Centre was to assist member nations in implementing Codex standards to facilitate international trade in food and agricultural commodities and thereby assist sustainable food security.
