Campaigns and laboratory projects

Every year the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration performs a number of campaigns and laboratory projects.

Campaigns are directed towards areas where there is a suspicion of or knowledge of problems or high risks.

Most of the laboratory projects are centrally coordinated and have monitoring or control as purposes but screening projects are also a possibility, when an upcoming issue has to be defined.

Sometimes the inspectors take samples for analysis if they have a suspicion of non compliance or as a follow up. These projects are coordinated in the regions.

Reports from the campaigns and laboratory projects are published at the DVFA Danish homepage: www.fvst.dk - Fødevareundersøgelser 

The reports can be used to evaluate if there is a need for amended inspection procedures, guidelines or information.
