Summary "The rapid and reliable detection of biological and chemical contaminants is extremely important in managing the safety of food and feed. Developments in analytical techniques have led to the emergence of a wide range of rapid methods to complement the traditional methods. At the same time, the importance of method validation, proficiency testing, quality management, sampling and legislation have all become more widely recognised."--COVER
Notes "This book has arisen from a very successful international conference on rapid methods held 25-26 March 2004 in Noordwijk, the Netherlands."--Foreword
