FSVO compiles the most important food safety information every month

Monitoring developments in the field of food safety is an indispensable task of early detection. This is why the FSVO summarizes and evaluates the essentials in the Seismo Info. The publication is communicated via newsletter.

Early detection for food safety aims to identify and assess the potential dangers that food and utility articles could represent for the health of consumers.

FSVO considers different types of dangers:

  • microbiological hazards, fraud and deception in foods
  • chemical hazards in food and utility articles
  • the dangers of nutrition
