Development of a method to determine polysorbates in foods.

Project Code: A01030

17/05/2010

There is a legal obligation for Member States of the European Union to monitor intakes and usage of food additives. Reliable methods are also needed to enable legislation to be enforced in the UK. The polysorbates (E432-436) are a group of emulsifying agents permitted in a range of foods including cakes, ice-cream, salad dressings and sauces. Methodology to detect polysorbates is lacking and this project aims to develop and validate a suitable method.
