With
the aim to acquire the most quality work, the Centre was the first
among the laboratories to recognise the importance of application of
ISO standards in its work. Seven years ago we started implementing
these standards. Yugoslav accreditation body JUAT has established that
the Centre fulfils the conditions for accreditation for laboratories
for analysis in accordance with JUS ISO/IEC requirements 25 and JUS EN
45001, and the same was verified by a decision No. 01-14/2001 on
September 11, 2001. Struggle for quality has no end, so the laboratory
improved its activities further on and standardised the same in
accordance with the requirements JUS ISO/IEC 17025 and was granted an
accreditation from the Accrediting Body of Serbia and Montenegro No.
01-016/1 on October 16, 2003. The scope of accreditation of the
Laboratory of the Centre is grate within the type of food for analysis
and the parameters of research.
In order to prove the
accuracy of the received laboratory results, which is one of the
obligations in carrying out quality work, the Centre participated in
international parallel analysis (Laboratory Proficiency Testing) abroad
and in country. The Centre regularly participated in co-laboratory
analysis for the Central Science Laboratory from Great Britain within
program FAPAS, Swedish National Food Administration within program Food
Chemistry and Norway Institute for Food and Environmental Analysis from
Oslo within program Food Microbiology. Among the co-laboratory analysis
in our country we should mention the ones organised by the Department
of Sanitary chemistry at Pharmaceutics Association of Serbia. Within
the mentioned analysis the received results showed the highest degree
of accuracy and therefore the Centre is graded among the most accurate
laboratories.
Taking in regard Strategy in the field of food
safety, Centre in co-operation with the German company “Biolab”
provides services of implementation of the System of risk analysis and
control of critical points –HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control
Point) to the producers and distributors of the raw materials for food
production, food as well as hospitality enterprises. |
