20 Feb 2019 --- The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) has developed a new DNA scanning tool to identify the entire DNA content of a food. According to the statutory body, the analytical tool can proactively identify all the ingredients and their biological sources in food, which will aid regulators in protecting consumers concerning potential food fraud and misleading labeling. The tool has already been used on a number of plant-based products and could be a game-changer for food safety and tackling food fraud.
