“It is exciting to see that some of our more fundamental research into crop stresses can be applied, through innovating projects, to improve food safety standards”
Scientists from the James Hutton Institute are supporting an industry-led Innovate UK project aimed at improving food safety standards in potato, cereal, bread and other food products.
The £1.99m initiative, led by Industrial Technology Systems Limited (ITS), has also enlisted the support of Teeside University, Abertay University and commercial partners.
The consortium will develop new chemical measurement, sampling, assessment and control techniques for enhanced food safety standards.
