Metrology for food safety in the circular economy
Targeted and screening methods for contaminants in food and recycled packaging
About the project
The project will establish a metrological network able to provide, in collaboration with research centres and industries, innovative harmonised standards, internationally recognised, aimed at the detection and quantification of contaminants in food, with a focus on those possibly migrated from virgin and recycled food packaging materials.
