Risk and analytical results

hazardObserved
/// In the present sample (palm oil), MOAH levels above the assessment value (JRCLOQ) of 2 mg/kg were determined using LC-GC-FID. The present sample contains 10 (+/- 4) mg/kg MOAH (C10 - C50). Taking into account the expanded measurement uncertainty (confidence level 95%), the MOAH content is thus analytically confirmed to be between 6 mg/kg and 14 mg/kg. Due to the analytically confirmed exceedance of the assessment value for MOAH, the present sample is to be assessed as unsuitable for human consumption and is therefore considered unsafe according to Art. 14(2)(b) of Regulation (EC) No. 178/2002.
