⚠️ #FoodFraud is a growing challenge in the area of food safety. It involves the deliberate deception of consumers through the manipulation, adulteration or false declaration of products in order to gain financial benefits. 🦑 In the case of #Tuna, illegal practices like dyeing tuna with unauthorized substances to make it appear fresher, deceiving consumers and posing health risks might be a serious concern. Common #CannedTuna species include Skipjack, Yellowfin, and Albacore, though mislabeling or mixing with lower-quality species is common. Food fraud, involving the manipulation or misrepresentation of products for financial gain, is a significant issue in fish and meat, necessitating strict controls and modern analytical methods. 🔬 To combat food fraud, lifeprint GmbH employs real-time PCR, a precise DNA detection method ideal for identifying tuna in processed products like canned tuna. This technique ensures high sensitivity and specificity, detecting even minute DNA amounts and boosting consumer confidence in #FoodSafety. Furthermore, we offer molecular analysis services such as PCR, ELISA, and sequencing, backed by rigorous quality controls and ISO accreditation - We make sure that there is real tuna in canned tuna.
