Welcome and Introductions Arora opened the meeting and all attendees were introduced. Konings reviewed the AOAC Policies and Procedures in the meeting book and also the meeting minutes from the SPSFAM session on March 20, 2014. • MOTION to approve the meeting minutes from the March 20, 2014 SPSFAM Meeting. (Konings/Bhandari) 21 in favor, 0 opposed, 1 abstain. The motion carried. o II. Panel Discussion on Food Safety Arora introduced guest speakers David Acheson, Robert Brackett and Samuel Godefroy. Acheson took the floor to begin the panel discussion on food safety. Acheson gave a presentation1 on food safety challenges, the intersection of food and health, and approaches to managing risks. Brackett gave a presentation2 on microbiological issues with food safety, including trends in regulatory philosophy, trends in views on food borne pathogens, and trends in analysis and testing. Godefroy concluded with a presentation3 on the complexity of the food supply chain, globalization and its consequences, emerging food chemical safety challenges, allergen management and nutrition safety. Acheson moderated a discussion between Panel members and SPSFAM participants on the several areas presented. III. Global Food Safety Initiative Wissenberg took the floor to provide a presentation4 on the Global Food Safety Initiative and the efforts of its Food Fraud Think Tank in particular. A stakeholder asked if the guidelines being developed cover validation methods for the processes and Wissenberg noted that this would be the next step. Sullivan highlighted that the challenge will be how to validate these types of methods. Stakeholders agreed that this field presents opportunities and challenges. IV. Working Group Launch: Heavy Metals Speciation Smith took the floor to give a presentation5 on the launch of a new SPSFAM Heavy Metals Speciation Working Group as requested by the SPSFAM Advisory Panel. Smith updated the panel on the progress of the previous Heavy Metals Working Group and advised that an ERP will be held for the final methods in review before the end of 2014. Smith then proposed a fitness for purpose statement to support the development a Heavy Metals Speciation SMPR. During the discussion, Gilliland made the following motion: 1 Attachment 1 - Acheson Presentation 2 Attachment 2 – Brackett Presentation 3 Attachment 3 –Godefroy Presentation 4 Attachment 4 – Wissenberg Presentation 5 Attachment 5 – Smith Presentation 2 AOAC Stakeholder Panel on Strategic Food Analytical Methods Meeting Minutes v0.3 • MOTION to ensure that the Heavy Metals Working Group will start off with Arsenic as a target. (Gilliland/Murphy) 19 in favor, 3 against, 0 abstain. The motion carried. Discussion continued on the fitness for purpose statement. The fitness for purpose statement proposed read as follows: A method for the determination of the major chemical species present in selected food matrices of any of the following elements: Arsenic, Mercury, Cadmium or Lead. After further discussion this was modified to the following: Methods for the determination of the major toxic chemical species present in selected food and beverage matrices of any of the following elements: Arsenic, Mercury, or Chromium. • MOTION to accept the Fitness for Purpose Statement for Heavy Metals Speciation as revised. (Smith/Briscoe) 21 in favor, 0 against, 0 abstain. The motion carried. V. Proposal for Working Group on Meat Species Authenticity Konings introduced Delatour, who took the floor and gave a presentation6 on the need for a working group on Meat Species Authenticity. Delatour reviewed the history of food fraud, the motivations for food fraud, its prevalence, and the challenges faced in preventing it. Konings asked for a straw poll to gauge interest in approaching this topic within SPSFAM and a significant number of attendees signaled support for this effort. Konings advised that the final decision will rest with the SPSFAM Advisory Panel. VI. Recommendation on Future Priorities Konings led a discussion on SPSFAM priorities for recommendation to the SPSFAM Advisory Panel. Using the concepts developed at the March 2014 SPSFAM meeting as a starting point, the panel agreed to recommend the following topics to the Advisory Panel: • Food Fraud: Meat/Fish Species • Microbiology: Fast methods for pathogens; fast methods for quantification • General: Validation guidelines for non-targeted analysis; Guidelines for Laboratory Sample Preparation Schwartz, as Chair of the AOAC ISPAM/FP panel, recommended that a joint group be convened to discuss overlap between the two stakeholder panels, in particular with regards to rapid microbiological methods. VII. Adjourn Konings announced that the next meeting of the SPSFAM will be during the week of March 16 in Gaithersburg, Maryland and that all presentations from this session will be made available online. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 6:00 p.m. EDT. 6 Attachment 6 – Delatour Presentation September 7,2014 SPSFAM Meeting Meeting Minutes V0.2 Attachments: Attachment 1: Acheson Presentation Attachment 2: Brackett Presentation Attachment 3: Godefroy Presentation Attachment 4: Wissenberg Presentation Attachment 5: Smith Presentation Attachment 6: Detalour Abstract and Presentation September 7,2014 SPSFAM Meeting Meeting Minutes V0.2 Global Trends Impacting Food Safety David Acheson September 7, 2014 Outline Constant challenges The intersection of food and health Approaches to managing risks Today’s Challenges Complex supply chains Consumer drivers Emerging threats Improving epidemiology Influence of media and litigation Drive toward lowering health care costs New regulations Inconsistent standards globally Major Drivers Intersection of food, nutrition and health The reality of economics Feeding people Health care costs Food production Developing safe products that meet all the needs at a reasonable cost Political Drivers Need to have safe food to drive down health care costs Obesity Chronic disease Incentives for preventive health strategy Weight control Foods associated with lowering the risk of cancer and diabetes Penalties for selling food that is perceived to increase health risk Soda tax Sugar tax The Reality of Producing Food Today Narrow margins Drive to minimize procurement costs Risk of going out of business if there is a food safety problem Risk of going out of business if consumers decide they don’t like you Dealing with consumer demands High quality Low price Innovative products with global ingredients Zero risk
