A working group consisting of members from 26 European countries- the Heads of Food Safety Agencies (HoA), has published its first report on food supplements and identified 117 substances that may have potentially hazardous properties and pose a health risk. Among these substances, 13 have been concluded as “highest priority” due to their potential risk to consumers, especially when consumed in amounts exceeding normal intake. These include Coumarin in plant preparations, piperine, tryptophan, Actaea racemosa, Lepidium meyenii and Ocimum tenuiflorum (holy basil). To safeguard the health of consumers, analytical testing of supplement raw materials and finished products is essential. We're thrilled to announce the release of our latest white paper. Drawing on insights from the LGC AXIO Proficiency Testing team, we examine the breadth and diversity of quality markers and chemical contaminants present in supplements. It also discusses the technical challenges faced by manufacturers.

We are delighted to announce that the new PT Data Dashboard is now available for our PT participants to register as Beta users! The new PT Data Dashboard sits alongside our existing PDF reports as an alternative way of reviewing your performance in a PT round. It enables you to easily monitor your long-term performance in proficiency testing from multiple angles. You can combine data across schemes, samples, analytes, methods, and analysts in a way that makes sense for you, enabling you to see the bigger picture but deep dive into detail with our Root Cause Analysis view on individual data points. The Beta phase will run until the end of July, at which point the dashboard will move into live usage and replace our existing Interactive Report and Group Level Dashboard. You will continue to receive our existing PDF reports as usual if this is your preferred way to review your performance. We welcome you to register as a Beta user today and provide your feedback on this new development. This is your opportunity to feed into the development process and help shape the way this tool functions for you. Register as a Beta user at https://okt.to/bSr7P9.
