What Is Food Safety Testing?

Food safety testing is the process of analyzing food products to detect the presence of harmful contaminants, such as bacteria, viruses, and chemicals. The goal of food safety testing is to ensure that the food we eat is free from harmful substances and safe for consumption. This may include testing for pathogenic microorganisms, pesticides, heavy metals, and other contaminants.
