The FSSAI has recognised the National Food and Feed Reference Laboratory (NFFRL), Kathmandu, for the analysis of food samples under the FSS Act.
According to FSSAI, a memorandum of understanding was signed between the Indian Food Authority and the Department of Food Technology and Quality Control, Nepal, for the cooperation in the field of food safety, recently.
“One of the areas of cooperation under the aegis of the MoU was the mutual recognition of each other’s laboratories as per the policy prevailing from time to time,” said Dr. Satyen Kumar Panda, Advisor, FSSAI.
Accordingly the NFFRL was recognised for the analysis of food samples under the FSS Act till the period of accreditation of the laboratory as per NABL.
The NFFRL now can analyse juice, jam, jelly, pickles, candies, ginger, fresh fruits & vegetables, and instant noodles.
