Aug 29 2007
Author: Jon Murthy on behalf of UKAS
The Central Science Laboratory (CSL) is an executive agency of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA). CSL is situated just outside York. It employs around 750 people and performs laboratory testing in four main areas of work; Food Science, Plant Health, Wildlife and the Environment. The analysis of food forms part of CSL?s work. David Galsworthy, Head of Quality Systems at CSL said. ?The work is very much focused on both natural and man-made contaminants found in food. An example of this type of work we do relates to the scare over the widespread use of illegal food dye that happened a few years ago. CSL was responsible for developing the methodology and setting up the surveillance programmes to check the ingredients being used in the food industry.?
