Hong Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme
(HOKLAS)
|
|
In January 2003, Hai Kang Life became the first laboratory
in China performing qualitative and quantitative genetically
modified organism (GMO) testing with real-time PCR
technology to be accredited by the Hong
Kong Accreditation Service (HKAS) under its Hong
Kong Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (HOKLAS).
A HOKLAS accreditation criterion incorporates ISO/IEC
17025:2005(E) which covers "General requirements
for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories",
both management systems and technical requirements.
As a result, HOKLAS accreditation is equivalent to
obtaining ISO17025.
Test reports issued by Hai Kang Life may now be endorsed
with the HKAS accreditation mark.

 |
Hai Kang Life is HOKLAS accredited for
specific tests as listed in the HOKLAS Directory of
Accredited Laboratories. Further information about our
accreditation can be obtained from the HOKLAS
website.

Genetically Modified Material Analysis
Scheme (GeMMA)
Formally known as FAPAS
|
|
GeMMA Scheme (2003) is an independent
program established to monitor the quality of GMO
testing lab around the world. It is administrated
by the Central Science Laboratory (UK) on behalf of
the Department of Environment, Food & Rural Affairs
(DEFRA) to provide laboratories around the world of
the opportunity to conduct proficiency tests in order
to protect the quality of food intended for human
consumption and animal feed, which will also ensure
their free and safe movement throughout the international
market. In March 2001, HAI KANG LIFE was found to
be the best among 66 testing laboratories worldwide
who submitted themselves to a battery of performance
tests.

Food Analysis Performance Assessment
Scheme (FAPAS)
|
|
FAPAS is recognized as the comprehensive analytical
chemistry proficiency testing scheme in the food sector.
HAI KANG LIFE has joined the scheme for its animal
species identifications that demonstrate the ability
of our laboratory testing. The service is capable
of identifying nutritional components, food ingredients,
natural food contaminants, organic and inorganic contaminants,
food additives and allergens, and can also determine
the authenticity of food and their components.

Asia Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (APLAC)
GMO Proficiency Testing Program |
|
This is the first GMO proficiency testing program
organized by the CNAL (China National Accreditation
Board for Laboratories), approved by the APLAC (Asia
Pacific Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation), the
organization of all Laboratory Accreditation bodies
within the Asia Pacific area. The program aims to
rigorously determine the level of accuracy and reliability
of each GMO test laboratory.
Participants are required to use
its qualitative and quantitative GMO tests, both of
which are based on real-time PCR, to assess undisclosed
samples for the presence of GMO. HAI KANG LIFE correctly
detected the presence of Roundup ReadyR Soya in the
test samples for both of the qualitative and quantitative
assessments. The satisfactory results in this officially
approved proficiency-testing program further strengthen
the leading status of HAI KANG LIFE's GMO testing
in the Greater China region.
