Hi,
I was wondering if you could give me an advice on pesticide and heavy metal testing on finished product (yoghurt).
We are in the process of taking on a new customer (Retail). Their routine testing requirement includes pesticides and heavy metals (only if relevant for certain products).
Would it be satisfactory if I do a risk assessment including all of the raw materials and the likelihood of heavy metal/pesticide contamination, also existing controls in place? We don't want to go down the route of routine testing (6 monthly) for heavy metals and pesticides unless it is absolutely necessary.
Thank you
Ildiko
