Effective routine sampling is an essential part of a well-balanced enforcement service and should therefore feature in the work programme of all Food Authorities. This video has been produced as part of the Agency’s programme of low-cost training for enforcement officers.
The video covers the principles of sampling for analysis/examination of food and can be used along with other appropriate guidance which has been produced by both the Agency and LACORS e.g. Food Standards and Feeding Stuffs Sampling, Practical Guidance for Enforcement Officers, Guidance on Food Sampling for Microbiological Examination.
All enforcement officers who watch this film should
download a sampling
checklist
for future use.
The video is divided into 3 sections:
Part 1 deals with why sampling is an essential part of food law enforcement
Part 2 deals with sampling for chemical analysis
Part 3 deals with sampling for microbiological examination
