AFNOR Standards development CASC4DE

 

Our company is participating in the drafting of standards, including contributions to the V03B commission on “Horizontal Methods for the Analysis of Food Products” within the French AFNOR. This commission plays a vital role in the development of key standards that enhance quality, safety, and sustainability in the agricultural and food sectors.

It was directly involved in developing key standards, including:

  • “Terminology for the Analysis of Agricultural and Food Products,” published as FD V01-000 in July 2023. Learn more here. This document establishes a common language for professionals in the field, ensuring clarity and consistency in communication. By defining essential terminology, we enhance understanding and collaboration among industry stakeholders, which is crucial for effective analysis and quality assurance.

  • “Protocol for Characterizing the Performance of a Quantitative Analysis Method for Validation through Accuracy Profiling,” published as NF V03-110 in July 2024. Learn more here. This document provides guidelines for assessing the performance of a quantitative analysis method intended for validation through the construction and interpretation of an accuracy profile. It emphasizes the importance of constructing and interpreting accuracy profiles, which are essential for ensuring that testing methods meet required standards for precision and reliability.

  • “Purity Determination of Organic Compounds Used for Foods and Food Products by qNMR,” published as NF ISO 24583 in February 2023. Learn more here. This standard specifies general requirements and performance criteria for determining the purity of organic compounds using solution-state ¹H qNMR. Contributing to the definition of tomorrow’s standards means working towards better quality, safety, and sustainability in our sector. Through this collaboration, we help set benchmarks that will guide future industrial and environmental best practices. 🌍
