Purpose:

  • To assess the prevalence of specific contaminants in food.
  • To evaluate the toxicological implications of detected impurities.
  • To determine acceptable levels of foreign matter in food products.

Summary:

  • The research estimates the extent of food adulteration by analyzing foreign matter such as insecticides, veterinary medicines, food additives, heavy metals, and organic chlorides.
  • It examines the health risks associated with these contaminants.
  • The study investigates the establishment of permissible impurity levels grounded in toxicological and medical considerations.

Impact:

  • Provides crucial data for regulatory agencies to update food safety standards.
  • Informs consumers about potential food risks.
  • Contributes to the development of more effective food quality control measures.
