Guidance Documents

In 2016, the “Guidance Document on the Estimation of LOD and LOQ for Measurements in the Field of Contaminants in Feed and Food” was created by the EURLs working with contaminants; the EURL for Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, EURL for Heavy Metals, EURL for Mycotoxins and EURL for Dioxins and PCBs.

The new cluster of EURLs for Contaminants – EURL for Metals and Nitrogenous compounds, EURL for Mycotoxins and Plant toxins, EURL for halogenated POPs, and EURL for Processing Contaminants in feed and food – developed a new Guidance document published in 2022. The new “Guidance Document on the Estimation of LOQ for Measurements in the Field of Contaminants in Feed and Food” recommends one universal approach barring any different requirements by the legislation.
