Dear Food Fraud Colleagues,

Please find the Food Fraud Monthly Report for August 2023 on our website: https://knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/publication/food-fraud-summary-august-2023_en

Cases of numerous commodities have been reported this month, in particular sugar, wine and alcoholic beverages, seafood, and meat.

The JRC also published a novel methodology combining digital PCR and metabarcoding by NGS to detect and quantify botanical impurities in commercial oregano. Take a look here!

 Enjoy the reading, and thank you for sharing it!
