Chemical and Microbiological Tests
Interlaboratory Comparisons 2024
Laboratory comparisons are part of quality control in laboratory activities and important for a number of company certifications. In 2024, SGF again offers its members the opportunity to participate in a free chemical/physical ringtest and a discounted microbiological ringtest.
Both tests are adapted to the needs of the juice industry. This year, they are carried out on an orange juice concentrate. For the correct execution, we again use the service of our cooperation partner DRRR. (Deutsches Referenzbüro für Ringversuche & Referenzmaterialien).
Registration is now open. The deadline for the chemical/physical test is 5 April 2024 and for the microbiological test is 28 June 2024.
