1:00 PM – 1:30 PM

Harvey W. Wiley Address: Advances and Challenges in

Establishing Residue Analysis System in India

Kaushik Banerjee, Ph.D.

1:30 PM – 3:00 PM

Wiley Award Symposium: Advances in Food Analysis

The 2017 Wiley Award Symposium is a gathering of scientists,

colleagues, collaborators, peers, interested stakeholders, and

friends that will honor this year’s recipient, Dr. Kaushik Banerjee of

the ICAR-National Research Centre for Grapes in Pune, India. The

esteemed speakers will present and discuss their current program

activities and exciting research using advanced techniques to address

issues in chemical contaminant and residue analysis as well as

metabolomics in foods. These presentations are representative of

the current and future directions and trends in food analysis and will

discuss the methods, procedures, and instrumentation used for food

authentication and safety.

Harmonization — One Big “Happy” Method

Certification Family?

The International Stakeholder Panel on Analytical Methods (ISPAM)

worked hard several years ago, to agree on a number of key method

validation criteria to try and bring the microbiology requirements for

method comparison between ISO and AOAC INTERNATIONAL together.

Many of the technical agreements from the ISPAM meetings were

included in the updated publications of method validation protocols:

ISO 16140-2:2016 — Microbiology of the Food Chain —

Method Validation

Official Methods of Analysis of AOAC INTERNATIONAL

Appendix J:

AOAC INTERNATIONAL Methods Committee Guidelines for

Validation of Microbiological Methods for Food and

Environmental Surfaces (2012)

Finally, in 2017, a harmonized study has been conducted, following

these “harmonized” criteria spelled out in BOTH method validation

protocols, as well specific criteria as required by each Certification

body (AOAC and AFNOR).

In this Symposium (Workshop), attendees will be:

1. Walked through the processes followed to ensure agreement

with both Certification bodies before initiating, and required

throughout, the conduction of a harmonized study;

2. Informed of key pros and cons involved in conducting this

type of harmonized study

3. Informed of how you, too, can work towards conducting

your own harmonized study

Cannabis: What is in the Plant and How to Overcome

Challenges in Analysis

Cannabis continues to garner much attention both in the public and

in the science industry. This session will begin by providing a brief

overview of the plant, discussing its unique botanical attributes,

pharmacognosy, and growth cycle, that make it such an interesting

subject matter. Now legal for compassionate or “medical” use in

28 states and the District of Columbia, and legal for recreational or

“adult use” in 6 states, regulatory bodies are confronted with a myriad

of challenges. Challenges at present include the lack of standard/

consensus test methods, lack of traditional ISO/IEC 17043 proficiency

test schemes, rapidly changing requirements about pest-control

mechanisms, and overall assurance of stated ingredients of potency of

major phytocannabinoids in finished products provided to the end-user

consumers. This session will provide a summary of these challenges

and also discuss the significant gains made by AOAC’s first Cannabis

Advisory Panel and Working Group toward the development of what will

likely become the first consensus analytical test methods. We will also

discuss gains toward providing a statistically sound sampling plan, and

gains in effective extraction and analytical instrumentation.
