The Spices Board of India
The Spices Board of India on Friday announced setting up of regional quality evaluation lab at Kandla Port in Kutch to create testing facilities to check pesticide residuals and microbiological contamination in spices.
The lab, first in Gujarat and seventh in the country, is likely to be operational by March-end, informed A Jayathilak, Chairman of the Spices Board, ahead of the 13th edition of ‘World Spice Congress 2016’ being held in Ahmedabad between February 27 and 29.
Currently, the Spices Board has six such regional quality evaluation labs each located in Mumbai, Guntur, Chennai, New Delhi, Kochi and Tuticorin.
Gujarat assumes significance especially for the exports of spices such as cumin, coriander and fennel seeds. Setting up of a regional lab would make it easier and quicker to test various parameters like total plate count, yeast and mould count, coliforms, aflatoxin, moisture, colour value, volatile oil in the samples easier and quicker for exporters from the State.
