  • Table of Amendments Issued
    Scotland Food Standards Training Manual Foreword The standard and quality of food is important to all consumers and food businesses across Scotland. Consumers must have confidence that food they buy and eat will be what they expect, will not be harmful and that they are protected from fraud. This manual provides information to authorised officers on these areas. The Food Standards Agency in Scotland has worked closely with the Scottish Government to ensure that the reputation of Scottish food and drink is upheld as part of Scotland’s National Food and Drink Policy. The Food Standards Training manual was first issued by the Food Standards Agency Northern Ireland in order to assist authorised officers with the challenging area of food standards. In 2007, the Agency’s sector-specific simplification project1 considered the potential for expanding the use of this manual. In Northern Ireland the manual is now in its third successful year, and evaluation of the manual has further determined the need for this type of resource. Work began in Scotland to produce a Scottish version of the manual in partnership with local authority authorised officers, based on the positive feedback received on the Northern Ireland manual from District Councils and to address issues raised by audits undertaken in Scotland. Partnership is key in the development of Agency projects and a working group was established to take this project forward with members of the Scottish Food Enforcement Liaison Committee Food Standards Sub Committee. The group offered invaluable expertise and experience in producing the Scottish edition of this training manual, and kept the main objective in focus, to provide a practical training and reference tool for authorised officers.

  • For Several Commercial Pasteurization and Sterilization Processes: Overview, Uses, and Restrictions
    R&D AND PRODUCTION RETORTS SPECIALISTS (33 to 175 L) www.terrafoodtech.com Heat Process Values F (2nd Ed.) for several Commercial Pasteurization and Sterilization Processes: Overview, Uses, and Restrictions Janwillem Rouweler - [email protected]; June 12, 2015 Which heat process value F should a particular food receive to make it safe and shelf stable? 10 * Section 1 lists reported sterilization values F0 = F 121.1 (= F zero) for commercial food preservation processes of all types of food products, for several package sizes and types. * Section2 contains reported pasteurization values F, or P, of a great variety of foods. The required storage conditions of the pasteurized foods, either at ambient temperature, or refrigerated (4-7 °C), are indicated. * Section 3 shows a decision scheme: should a particular food be pasteurized or sterilized? This depends on the intended storage temperature (refrigerated or ambient) after heating, the required shelf life (7 days to 4 years), the food pH (high acid, acid, or low acid), the food - water activity aW, and on the presence of preservatives such as nitrite NO2 (E250) miXed with salt NaCl, or nisin. * In Section 4, two worked eXamples are presented on how to use an F value when calculating the actual sterilization time Pt: - C.R. Stumbo’s (1973) calculation method has been manually applied, verified by computer program STUMBO.eXe, to find the sterilization time and the thiamine retention of bottled liquid milk in a rotating steam retort; - O.T. Pham’s (1987; 1990) formula method, incorporated in EXcel program “Heat Process calculations according to Pham.xls”, has been used to find the sterilization time and the nutrient retention of canned carrot purée in a still steam retort.

Title of Proposal 1.1 The Plastic Kitchenware (Conditions on Imports from China) (Scotland) Regulations 2011. 2. Purpose and intended effect > Objectives 2.1 The policy objective is to make national Regulations to provide for the execution and enforcement, in Scotland, of the European Commission Regulation (EU) No. 284/2011 ("the EU Kitchenware Regulation"), which sets down additional import controls applicable from 1 July 2011. The EU Kitchenware Regulation aims to reduce the risk of non-compliant plastic kitchenware from the People's Republic of China and Hong Kong (together referred to as "China" in this document) entering the EU,.thereby minimising the associated risks to EU consumers. There is enough evidence, by way of notifications and alerts by Member States (85 notifications and alerts between 2009/10), that polyamide (nylon) and melamine plastic kitchenware imported from China could potentially put consumers at risk due to the excessive levels of primary aromatic amines (PAAs) and formaldehyde that migrate from them into foods that may come into contact with them. This risk can be minimised by targeting and testing imports of such products prior to release for sale on the market. > Leaislative Backaround EU Legislation on Plastic Food Contact Materials 2.2 Harmonised EU rules on plastic food contact materials were until recently laid down by Commission Directive 2002/72/EC (as amended) relating to plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
