Food Safety Live Conference Panel – Have we moved on since Dark Waters?

On November 16, 2022, Justin Boucher, Operations Director at the Food Packaging Forum, spoke on a panel at the Food Safety Live Conference focused on understanding the ongoing uses of PFAS across the food sector and their analytical challenges. Key discussion points include the minimal number of analytical standards available to measure just a handful of the thousands of PFAS that can be present, as well as the need to ensure that chemical alternatives chosen to replace them are adequately assessed before their use.
