Food Integrity and Traceability Conference

The ASSET Research Centre (Queen's University Belfast) in collaboration with safefood are delighted to announce a major International Conference on food safety, to be held at Queen's University Belfast (21-24 March 2011).

The ability to protect the integrity of the food supply chain is a massive challenge but one which is of the utmost importance to protect the consumer.  This encompasses the threats posed by microbiological and chemical contamination of the supply chain along with guaranteeing the authenticity of food products to combat fraudulent practices and control adulteration for economic, food safety and cultural reasons.

The conference to be held in Belfast will concentrate on three key themes:

  • Reviewing recent progress in delivering safe and authentic food to the consumer
  • Identifying the greatest current and emerging threats to the integrity of the agri-food supply
  • Delivering new analytical means of verifying the integrity of the agri-food supply chain

Audience: All stakeholders in food integrity; scientists, regulators and industry representatives should attend this important event.
